Created:June 3, 2013 Updated:September 30, 2013
Description: From the CVE entries:

epan/dissectors/packet-gtpv2.c in the GTPv2 dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.7 calls incorrect functions in certain contexts related to ciphers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-3555)

The dissect_ber_choice function in epan/dissectors/packet-ber.c in the ASN.1 BER dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.15 and 1.8.x before 1.8.7 does not properly initialize a certain variable, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-3557)

The dissect_ccp_bsdcomp_opt function in epan/dissectors/packet-ppp.c in the PPP CCP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.7 does not terminate a bit-field list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-3558)

epan/dissectors/packet-dcp-etsi.c in the DCP ETSI dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.7 uses incorrect integer data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow, and heap memory corruption or NULL pointer dereference, and application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-3559)

The dissect_dsmcc_un_download function in epan/dissectors/packet-mpeg-dsmcc.c in the MPEG DSM-CC dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.7 uses an incorrect format string, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-3560)

Multiple integer signedness errors in the tvb_unmasked function in epan/dissectors/packet-websocket.c in the Websocket dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.7 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-3562)
