Description Jan Lieskovsky 2013-01-31 08:42:22 EST

A denial of service flaw was found in the way DTLS dissector of Wireshark, a network traffic analyzer, performed dissection of certain DTLS packet capture files. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted DTLS packet / packet capture that, when processed, would lead to tshark executable crash, when trying to process the crafted packet / packet capture file.
