Descriptions

In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.5, the 6LoWPAN dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-6lowpan.c by avoiding use of a TVB before its creation.

En Wireshark desde la versión 2.6.0 hasta la 2.6.5, el disector 6LoWPAN podría cerrarse inesperadamente. Esto se trató en epan/dissectors/packet-6lowpan.c, evitando el uso de un TVB antes de su creación.

It was discovered that Wireshark, a network traffic analyzer, contained several vulnerabilities in the dissectors for 6LoWPAN, P_MUL, RTSE, ISAKMP, TCAP, ASN.1 BER and RPCAP, which could result in denial of service.
