Description

The dissect_zbee_secure function in epan/dissectors/packet-zbee-security.c in the ZigBee dissector in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.7 improperly relies on length fields contained in packet data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet.

Solution(s)

  • wireshark-upgrade-1_12_7
