In Wireshark 2.6.0, 2.4.0 to 2.4.6, and 2.2.0 to 2.2.14, the Q.931 dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-q931.c by avoiding a use-after-free after a malformed packet prevented certain cleanup.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - wireshark: free operation on an uninitialized memory address in wiretap/netmon.c (CVE-2018-6836)

  - Multiple integer overflows in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.13 and 1.6.x before 1.6.8 allow remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via vectors related to the (1) BACapp and (2) Bluetooth HCI     dissectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-2392. (CVE-2012-3825)

  - The decompress_sigcomp_message function in epan/sigcomp-udvm.c in the SigComp UDVM dissector in Wireshark     1.10.x before 1.10.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and     application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2014-8710)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - wireshark: free operation on an uninitialized memory address in wiretap/netmon.c (CVE-2018-6836)

  - The dissector-table implementation in epan/packet.c in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.7 mishandles table     searches for empty strings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash)     via a crafted packet, related to the (1) dissector_get_string_handle and (2)     dissector_get_default_string_handle functions. (CVE-2015-6243)

  - The dissect_zbee_secure function in epan/dissectors/packet-zbee-security.c in the ZigBee dissector in     Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.7 improperly relies on length fields contained in packet data, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2015-6244)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - wireshark: free operation on an uninitialized memory address in wiretap/netmon.c (CVE-2018-6836)

  - The srtp_add_address function in epan/dissectors/packet-rtp.c in the RTP dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x     before 1.10.7 does not properly update SRTP conversation data, which allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2014-2907)

  - The dissect_frame function in epan/dissectors/packet-frame.c in the frame metadissector in Wireshark     1.10.x before 1.10.8 interprets a negative integer as a length value even though it was intended to     represent an error condition, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application     crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2014-4020)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

It was discovered that Wireshark, a network protocol analyzer, contained several vulnerabilities in the dissectors for PCP, ADB, NBAP, UMTS MAC, IEEE 802.11, SIGCOMP, LDSS, GSM A DTAP and Q.931, which result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.

The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 2.2.x prior to 2.2.15, 2.4.x prior to 2.4.6, or 2.6.x prior to 2.6.1.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

The version of Wireshark installed on the remote MacOS/MacOSX host is 2.2.x prior to 2.2.15, 2.4.x prior to 2.4.7, or 2.6.x prior to 2.6.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Several issues that could result in a crash within different dissectors have been fixed. Other issues are related to memory leaks or heap-based buffer overflows.

All issue could be caused by special crafted and malformed packets.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 1.12.1+g01b65bf-4+deb8u6~deb7u11.

We recommend that you upgrade your wireshark packages.
