Description Jan Lieskovsky 2013-07-30 14:05:09 UTC 
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2013-4934 to the following vulnerability:

The netmon_open function in wiretap/netmon.c in the Netmon file parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not initialize certain structure members, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet-trace file.
