Description
The installed version of Wireshark or Ethereal is affected by
multiple issues :
– The GSM A RR dissector could crash. (Bug 3893)
– The OpcUa dissector could use excessive CPU and memory.
(Bug 3986)
– The TLS dissector could crash on some platforms.
(Bug 4008)
– Wireshark could crash while reading an ‘ERF’ file.
(Bug 3849)
These vulnerabilities could result in a denial of service. A remote
attacker could exploit these issues by tricking a user into opening a
maliciously crafted capture file. Additionally, if Wireshark is
running in promiscuous mode, one of these issues could be exploited
remotely (from the same network segment).
