It was discovered that Wireshark improperly handled certain input. A remote or local attacker could cause Wireshark to crash by injecting malform packets onto the wire or convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file.

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