Description
This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-12086)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the OpcUa dissector component to crash.
2) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18225)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the CoAP dissector component to crash.
3) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18226)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to memory leak in the Steam IHS Discovery dissector when handling malicious input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and gain access to arbitrary data.
4) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18227)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the MS-WSP dissector component to crash.
5) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19622)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when handling user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the MMSE dissector to crash.
6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19623)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the DLBMPDM dissector to crash.
7) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19624)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the PVFS dissector to crash.
8) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19625)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the Wireshark dissection engine to crash.
9) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19626)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the DCOM dissector to crash.
10) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19627)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the IxVeriWave file parser to crash.
11) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19628)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet into a network, to be processed by the affected application, or trick the victim into opening a malicious packet trace file and cause the ZigBee ZCL dissector to crash.
