Descriptions

The (1) get_quoted_string and (2) get_unquoted_string functions in epan/dissectors/packet-cups.c in the CUPS dissector in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) via a CUPS packet that lacks a trailing '\0' character.

Las funciones (1) get_quoted_string y (2) get_unquoted_string en epan/dissectors/packet-cups.c en el diseccionador CUPS en Wireshark 1.10.x anterior a 1.10.10 y 1.12.x anterior a 1.12.1 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (sobrelectura de buffer y caída de la aplicación) a través de un paquete CUPS que carece de un carácter '\0' final.
