Description Murray McAllister 2013-09-12 05:55:44 UTC 
A flaw was found in the Wireshark LDAP dissector. Wireshark could crash if it read a malformed packet off a network, or opened a malicious dump file. This issue affects Wireshark versions 1.10.0 to 1.10.1 and 1.8.0 to 1.8.9. It is fixed in versions 1.10.2 1.8.10.

That's hard to fix this (and related) issue due to scary message:

"You are not authorized to access bug #1007214."

Murray, are these bugs RHEL-related or something?

Hello Peter,

Very sorry for the confusion. I mistakenly did not file the Fedora bugs right away. I have done that now.

Yes, #1007214 is RHEL related with some questions I had about older RHEL releases. Please ignore it (although hard not to, when I didn't file the right bugs first...)

Cheers

I dont have access to the closed bug or the cap file, so this one will need to be SanityOnly
