2015-04-03 21:00:10 Thomas Ward description There are 6 new CVEs which impact Wireshark in Utopic. (Three of these also affect Precise) ------ CVE-2015-2187: (Utopic) The dissect_atn_cpdlc_heur function in asn1/atn-cpdlc/packet-atn-cpdlc-template.c in the ATN-CPDLC dissector in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.4 does not properly follow the TRY/ENDTRY code requirements, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted packet. CVE-2015-2188: (Precise, Utopic) epan/dissectors/packet-wcp.c in the WCP dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.13 and 1.12.x before 1.12.4 does not properly initialize a data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted packet that is improperly handled during decompression. CVE-2015-2189: (Precise, Utopic) Off-by-one error in the pcapng_read function in wiretap/pcapng.c in the pcapng file parser in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.13 and 1.12.x before 1.12.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via an invalid Interface Statistics Block (ISB) interface ID in a crafted packet. CVE-2015-2190: (Utopic) epan/proto.c in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.4 does not properly handle integer data types greater than 32 bits in size, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via a crafted packet that is improperly handled by the LLDP dissector. CVE-2015-2191: (Precise, Utopic) Integer overflow in the dissect_tnef function in epan/dissectors/packet-tnef.c in the TNEF dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.13 and 1.12.x before 1.12.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted length field in a packet. CVE-2015-2192: (Utopic) Integer overflow in the dissect_osd2_cdb_continuation function in epan/dissectors/packet-scsi-osd.c in the SCSI OSD dissector in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted length field in a packet. ------ Vivid is not affected by these CVEs as the archive autosync pulled in a version from Debian that has patches from Wireshark 1.12.4 which fix the problem. Precise and Utopic are affected. Importance set to medium because the majority of these CVEs have a "medium" severity in the Ubuntu CVE tracker. There are 6 new CVEs which impact Wireshark in Utopic. (Three of these also affect Trusty) ------ CVE-2015-2187: (Utopic) The dissect_atn_cpdlc_heur function in asn1/atn-cpdlc/packet-atn-cpdlc-template.c in the ATN-CPDLC dissector in Wireshark 1.12.x before 1.12.4 does not properly follow the TRY/ENDTRY code requirements, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted packet. CVE-2015-2188: (Trusty, Utopic) epan/dissectors/packet-wcp.c in the WCP dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.13 and 1.12.x before 1.12.4 does not properly initialize a data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted packet that is improperly handled during decompression.
