The host is installed with Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15 or 1.6.x before 1.6.10 or 1.8.x before 1.8.2 and is prone to denial of service vulnerability. A flaw is present in the application, which fails to handle a large number of ACL entries. Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption).
