Descriptions

In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.3 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.9, the ASTERIX dissector could go into an infinite loop, triggered by packet injection or a malformed capture file. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-asterix.c by changing a data type to avoid an integer overflow.

En Wireshark 2.2.0 hasta la versión 2.2.3 y 2.0.0 hasta la versión 2.0.9, el disector ASTERIX podría entrar en un bucle infinito, desencadenado por la inyección de paquetes o un archivo de captura mal formado. Esto fue abordado en epan/dissectors/packet-asterix.c cambiando un tipo de datos para evitar un desbordamiento de enteros.
