Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Wireshark. A memory leak in the IEEE C37.118 Synchrophasor protocol dissector can allow an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS). By convincing a user to open a maliciously crafted packet capture file, the dissector fails to release allocated memory during packet dissection. This continuous memory consumption can lead to resource exhaustion, ultimately causing the application to crash or become unresponsive.
