**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Wireshark versions 1.8.x through 1.8.8 Wireshark versions 1.10.x through 1.10.0 **Description** The issue is related to the `parseFields` function in the DIS dissector, which does not properly terminate packet-data processing after finding zero remaining bytes. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop) via a crafted packet. **Recommendations** For Wireshark versions 1.8.x through 1.8.8, update to version 1.8.9 or later. For Wireshark versions 1.10.x through 1.10.0, update to version 1.10.1 or later.
