There are multiple vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal earlier than 0.10.10, including:
The Etheric, 3GPP2 A11 and IAPP dissectors are vulnerable to buffer overflows (CAN-2005-0704, CAN-2005-0699 and CAN-2005-0739).
The GPRS-LLC could crash when the 'ignore cipher bit' option is enabled (CAN-2005-0705).
Various vulnerabilities in JXTA and sFlow dissectors.
Impact :
An attacker might be able to use these vulnerabilities to crash Ethereal and execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running Ethereal, which could be the root user.
Workaround :
For a temporary workaround you can disable all affected protocol dissectors. However, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to the latest stable version.
