Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-07-21 15:46:41 UTC
An integer overflow flaw, leading to heap-based buffer overflow was found
in the Wireshark's Bluetooth L2CAP dissector. A remote attacker could
provide a specially-crafted L2CAP packet capture file, which once opened
by an unsuspecting user would lead to denial of service (Wireshark crash).
