The installed version of Wireshark 1.8.x is a version prior to 1.8.13. It is, therefore, affected by denial of service vulnerabilities in the following dissectors :

  • NFS dissector (CVE-2014-2281)
  • RLC dissector (CVE-2014-2283)

Additionally, a flaw exists in the β€˜mpeg_read()’ function in the MPEG file parser, β€˜wiretap/mpeg.c’, where input is not properly sanitized when handling oversized records. A context-dependent attacker could cause a buffer overflow with a specially crafted packet trace file, resulting in a denial of service or potentially arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-2299)
