Discussion

Wireshark Multiple Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

Wireshark is prone to multiple denial-of-service vulnerabilities.

An attacker can exploit these issues by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed 'pcap' file.

Attackers can exploit these issues to crash the affected application or to consume excess memory, denying service to legitimate users.
