Bug Fixes
The following vulnerabilities have been fixed:
The following vulnerabilities have been fixed. See the [1]security
advisory for details and a workaround.
o The SCSI dissector could crash. Versions affected: 0.99.2.
o The TCP dissector could hang or crash while reassembling HTTP
packets. Versions affected: 0.99.2 to 0.99.4
o If Wireshark was compiled with ESP decryption support, the
IPsec ESP preference parser was susceptible to off-by-one
errors. Versions affected: 0.99.2.
o The HTTP dissector could crash. Versions affected: 0.99.3 to
0.99.4
o The DHCP dissector (and possibly others) in the Windows
version of Wireshark could trigger a bug in Glib and crash.
Versions affected: 0.10.13 - 0.99.2.
o On some systems, the IEEE 802.11 dissector could crash.
Versions affected: 0.10.14 to 0.99.4
o If the SSCOP dissector has a port range configured and the
SSCOP payload protocol is Q.2931, a malformed packet could
make the Q.2931 dissector use up available memory. No port
range is configured by default. Versions affected: 0.7.9 -
0.99.2.
o On some systems, the LLT dissector could crash. Versions
affected: 0.99.3 to 0.99.4
The following bugs have been fixed:
o The VOIP call analysis feature could cause an assertion.
o On Windows systems the packet list scroll bar could sometimes
disappear or become unusable. ([2]Bug 220)
o The RTP analysis feature could freeze for an extended period.
o The end of HTTP chunked encoding wasn't being displayed.
([3]Bug 646)
o Selecting "Apply as Filter" wouldn't work for some tree items.
o The Follow TCP Stream window could omit characters. ([4]Bug
1043)
o Opening a flow graph could crash Wireshark. ([5]Bug 1117)
o Follow TCP Stream would sometimes get the direction wrong.
([6]Bug 1138)
o The foreground text in the coloring rules editor was always
black.. ([7]Bug 1164)
o The CSV export format was incorrect. ([8]Bug 1173)
o On some Windows systems Wireshark could take a long time to
start up.
o Malformed UDLD packets could cause an exception.
New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly
updated) since the last release:
o ESP, Kerberos, and SSL decryption are now supported in the
Windows installer. (As as result, Wireshark is now subject to
United States export controls.)
o We are now offering Wireshark as a U3 package for Windows. U3
packages are suitable for using on USB drives and CD-ROMs.
It's still experimental, but you're welcome to try it out and
report any problems or successes.
o The packet list context menu now includes a conversation
filter.
o Decryption support for WPA/WPA2 and SNMPv3 has been added. The
TDS / MS SQL dissector now de-obfuscates passwords.
o Wireshark can now generate ACL rules for several popular
firewall products.
o 64-bit file handling has been improved.
o Wireshark now supports AirPcap, including raw 802.11 captures
under Windows.
o The Find function now selects the corresponding packet detail
item. Find functionality has been added to the TCP and SSL
stream dialogs.
o Main window keyboard navigation has been improved.
o Windows file dialogs now show the navigation bar. File dialogs
now default to "My Documents" in accordance with Microsoft's
HIG.
o [9]AirPcap support (which provides raw mode capture under
Windows) has been enhanced to allow capturing on multiple
AirPcap adapters simultaneously.
o You can no longer install Wireshark on Windows 95, 98, or ME.
(OK, so it's not a feature per se, but it's an important
change)
o ASN.1 BER-encoded files can now be dissected according to a
user-specified syntax.
