Descriptions
In Wireshark 2.2.4 and earlier, a crafted or malformed STANAG 4607 capture file will cause an infinite loop and memory exhaustion. If the packet size field in a packet header is null, the offset to read from will not advance, causing continuous attempts to read the same zero length packet. This will quickly exhaust all system memory.
En Wireshark 2.2.4 y versiones anteriores, un archivo de captura STANAG 4607 manipulado o mal formado causará un bucle infinito y agotamiento de memoria. Si el campo de tamaño de paquete en un encabezado de paquete es nulo, el desplazamiento a leer no avanzará, provocando intentos continuos para leer el mismo paquete de longitud cero. Esto agotará rápidamente toda la memoria del sistema.
