Folks might want to see if this helps with any of the strange Vista issues. -Jason ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Gianluca Varenni Date: Nov 9, 2007 11:47 AM Subject: [Wireshark-dev] [ANNOUNCE] WinPcap 4.0.2 has been released To: Developer support list for Wireshark As of today, WinPcap 4.0.2 is available in the download section of the WinPcap website, http://www.winpcap.org/install/ . This maintenance release addresses a security vulnerability reported by the iDefense Labs in a soon-to-be-released advisory. Full details can be found in the change log attached at the end of this message. Gianluca Varenni WinPcap Team Changelog from WinPcap 4.0.1 ============================ - Disabled support for monitor mode (also called TME, Table Management Extensions) in the driver. This module suffers from several security vulnerabilities that could result in BSODs or privilege escalation attacks. This fix addresses a security vulnerability reported by the iDefense Labs. - Bug fixing: * Added a missing NULL pointer check in pcap_open() * Fixed a misplaced #ifdef WIN32 directive in pcap_open(). * Fixed a bug in the send routine of the driver that could cause a crash under low resources conditions. * Fixed a bug in the installer causing a mis-detection of a previous WinPcap installation * Minor cleanup of some #define directives in the driver (to disable the TME extensions). ========= _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev () wireshark org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev -- NOTICE: This email is being sent in clear-text across the public Internet.
