Description Murray McAllister 2014-09-17 06:09:53 UTC
It was reported that Wireshark's CUPS dissector could crash. It may be possible to make Wireshark crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file.

This is reported to affect version 1.12.0. This version is not shipped in Fedora or Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
