Wireshark 0.99.3 fixes the following vulnerabilities:

    * The SCSI dissector could crash.
          Versions affected: 0.99.2. CVE: CVE-2006-4330
    * 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. CVE: CVE-2006-4331
    * 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. CVE: CVE-2006-4332
    * 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. CVE: CVE-2006-4333 

 It may be possible to make Wireshark or Ethereal crash, use up available
 memory, or run arbitrary code by injecting a purposefully malformed packet
 onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace
 file.
