The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 2.6.x prior to 2.6.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities in the following protocol dissectors:

  - 6LoWPAN

  - P_MUL

  - RTSE

  - ISAKMP

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.

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.

This update for wireshark and libmaxminddb fixes the following issues :

Update wireshark to new major version 3.2.2 and introduce libmaxminddb for GeoIP support (bsc#1156288).

New features include :

  - Added support for 111 new protocols, including     WireGuard, LoRaWAN, TPM 2.0, 802.11ax and QUIC

  - Improved support for existing protocols, like HTTP/2

  - Improved analytics and usability functionalities

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 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)

  - In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.3 and 2.2.0 to 2.2.11, the IxVeriWave file parser could crash. This was     addressed in wiretap/vwr.c by correcting the signature timestamp bounds checks. (CVE-2018-5334)

  - In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.3 and 2.2.0 to 2.2.11, the WCP dissector could crash. This was addressed in     epan/dissectors/packet-wcp.c by validating the available buffer length. (CVE-2018-5335)

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