The host is installed with Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.11 or 1.10.x before 1.10.3 and is prone to denial of service vulnerability. The flaw is present in the dissect_openwire_type function in epan/dissectors/packet-openwire.c in the OpenWire dissector, which fails to properly handle a crafted packet. Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop).
