Package(s):wireshark CVE #(s):CVE-2016-7176 CVE-2016-7177 CVE-2016-7178 CVE-2016-7179 CVE-2016-7180
Created:September 21, 2016 Updated:September 27, 2016
Description: From the CVE entries:

epan/dissectors/packet-h225.c in the H.225 dissector in Wireshark 2.x before 2.0.6 calls snprintf with one of its input buffers as the output buffer, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (copy overlap and application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2016-7176)

epan/dissectors/packet-catapult-dct2000.c in the Catapult DCT2000 dissector in Wireshark 2.x before 2.0.6 does not restrict the number of channels, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2016-7177)

epan/dissectors/packet-umts_fp.c in the UMTS FP dissector in Wireshark 2.x before 2.0.6 does not ensure that memory is allocated for certain data structures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid write access and application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2016-7178)

Stack-based buffer overflow in epan/dissectors/packet-catapult-dct2000.c in the Catapult DCT2000 dissector in Wireshark 2.x before 2.0.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2016-7179)

epan/dissectors/packet-ipmi-trace.c in the IPMI trace dissector in Wireshark 2.x before 2.0.6 does not properly consider whether a string is constant, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2016-7180)
