Descriptions

In Wireshark through 2.6.2, the create_app_running_mutex function in wsutil/file_util.c calls SetSecurityDescriptorDacl to set a NULL DACL, which allows attackers to modify the access control arbitrarily.

En Wireshark hasta la versión 2.6.2, la función create_app_running_mutex en wsutil/file_util.c llama a SetSecurityDescriptorDacl para establecer un DACL NULL que permite que los atacantes modifiquen el control de acceso de forma arbitraria.
