Stack consumption vulnerability in the BER dissector in Wireshark via a long string in an unknown ASN.1/BER encoded packet (Mac OS X)| ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:40822 | Date: (C)2017-06-08 (M)2022-11-04 |
| Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: macos |
The host is installed with Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.1 or 1.2.x before 1.2.12 and is prone to a stack consumption vulnerability. A flaw is present in the BER dissector, which fails to properly handle a long string in an unknown ASN.1/BER encoded packet. Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash).
