In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.13, 2.6.0 to 2.6.7, and 3.0.0, the GSS-API dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-gssapi.c by ensuring that a valid dissector is called.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10895)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.13, 2.6.0 to 2.6.7, and 3.0.0, the NetScaler file parser could crash. This was addressed in wiretap/netscaler.c by improving data validation.


3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10896)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.13, 2.6.0 to 2.6.7, and 3.0.0, the DOF dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-dof.c by properly handling generated IID and OID bytes.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10897)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 3.0.0, the IEEE 802.11 dissector could go into an infinite loop. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-ieee80211.c by detecting cases in which the bit offset does not advance.


5) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10898)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 3.0.0, the GSUP dissector could go into an infinite loop. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-gsm_gsup.c by rejecting an invalid Information Element length.


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10899)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.13, 2.6.0 to 2.6.7, and 3.0.0, the SRVLOC dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-srvloc.c by preventing a heap-based buffer under-read.


7) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10900)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 3.0.0, the Rbm dissector could go into an infinite loop. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/file-rbm.c by handling unknown object types safely.


8) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10901)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.13, 2.6.0 to 2.6.7, and 3.0.0, the LDSS dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-ldss.c by handling file digests properly.


9) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10902)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Wireshark 3.0.0, the TSDNS dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-tsdns.c by splitting strings safely.
