Descriptions

epan/dissectors/packet-sctp.c in the SCTP dissector in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.9 and 2.0.x before 2.0.1 does not validate the frame pointer, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted packet.

epan/dissectors/packet-sctp.c en el disector SCTP en Wireshark 1.12.x en versiones anteriores a 1.12.9 y 2.0.x en versiones anteriores a 2.0.1 no valida el puntero del frame, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero NULL y caída de aplicación) a través de un paquete manipulado.

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in the dissectors/parsers for Pcapng, NBAP, UMTS FP, DCOM, AllJoyn, T.38, SDP, NLM, DNS, BED, SCTP, 802.11, DIAMETER, VeriWave, RVSP, ANSi A, GSM A, Ascend, NBAP, ZigBee ZCL and Sniffer which could result in denial of service.
