Wireshark 2.4.x < 2.4.12 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 121107

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 2.4.x prior to 2.4.12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities in the following protocol dissectors:

- P_MUL

- RTSE

- ISAKMP

- ENIP

An attacker could cause Wireshark to crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire, or by convincing a user to read a malformed packet trace file.

Solution

Upgrade to Wireshark version 2.4.12 or later.
