Description Jan Lieskovsky 2010-11-23 18:12:37 UTC
A denial of service flaw was found in the way the Zigbee ZCL
dissector of Wireshark network traffic analyzer processed
certain captures. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
cause an infinite loop, if the local user opened 
a specially-crafted captures file in Wireshark.

Comment 1 Jan Lieskovsky 2010-11-23 18:17:30 UTC
This issue did NOT affect the versions of the wireshark package,
as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, 5, or 6, as those
versions do not provide support for the Zigbee Cluster Library
(ZCL) protocol yet.
