It was discovered that there was denial of service vulnerability in wireshark, a network traffic analyzer.

A malformed NATO Ground Moving Target Indicator Format (‘STANAG 4607’) capture file could cause a memory exhausion/infinite loop.

For Debian 7 ‘Wheezy’, this issue has been fixed in wireshark version 1.12.1+g01b65bf-4+deb8u6~deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your wireshark packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
