asn1/lpp/lpp.cnf in the LPP dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.12 and 1.12.x before 1.12.3 does not validate a certain index value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access and application crash) via a crafted packet.

wireshark has been updated to version 1.10.12 to fix six security issues :

  - The WCCP dissector could crash. (bnc#912365).
    (CVE-2015-0559 / CVE-2015-0560)

  - The LPP dissector could crash. (bnc#912368).
    (CVE-2015-0561)

  - The DEC DNA Routing Protocol dissector could crash.
    (bnc#912369). (CVE-2015-0562)

  - The SMTP dissector could crash. (bnc#912370).
    (CVE-2015-0563)

  - Wireshark could crash while decypting TLS/SSL sessions     (bnc#912372) Further bug fixes and updated protocol     support as listed in:. (CVE-2015-0564)

This update fixes the following security issues :

  + The WCCP dissector could crash wnpa-sec-2015-01     CVE-2015-0559 CVE-2015-0560 [boo#912365]

  + The LPP dissector could crash. wnpa-sec-2015-02     CVE-2015-0561 [boo#912368]

    wnpa-sec-2015-03 CVE-2015-0562 [boo#912369]

  + The SMTP dissector could crash. wnpa-sec-2015-04     CVE-2015-0563 [boo#912370]

  + Wireshark could crash while decypting TLS/SSL sessions.
    wnpa-sec-2015-05 CVE-2015-0564 [boo#912372]

The remote Windows host has a version of Wireshark installed that is 1.10.x prior to 1.10.12 or 1.12.x prior to 1.12.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities in the following dissectors :

  - DEC DNA Routing (CVE-2015-0562)
  - LPP (CVE-2015-0561)
  - SMTP (CVE-2015-0563)
  - WCCP (CVE-2015-0559, CVE-2015-0560)

  - A denial of service vulnerability also exists related to     a buffer underflow error in TLS/SSL session decryption.
    (CVE-2015-0564)

A remote attacker, using a specially crafted packet or malformed pcap file, can exploit these to cause the application to crash.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
