Descriptions

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.

epan/dissectors/packet-umts_fp.c en el disector UMTS FP en Wireshark 2.x en versiones anteriores a 2.0.6 no asegura que la memoria sea asignada para ciertas estructuras de datos, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (escrito de acceso invalido y caída de la aplicación) a través de un paquete manipulado.

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in the dissectors for H.225, Catapult DCT2000, UMTS FP and IPMI, which could result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in version 1.12.1+g01b65bf-4+deb8u9. For the testing distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 2.2.0+g5368c50-1. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 2.2.0+g5368c50-1.
