Wireshark · Wireshark · CVE-2024-4854
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Wireshark versions 4.2.0 through 4.2.4
Wireshark versions 4.0.0 through 4.0.14
Wireshark versions 3.6.0 through 3.6.22
**Description**
The issue is related to infinite loops in the MONGO and ZigBee TLV dissectors, which can cause a denial of service. This can be achieved via packet injection or crafted capture files, allowing a remote attacker to exploit the vulnerability and disrupt service.
**Recommendations**
For Wireshark versions 4.2.0 through 4.2.4, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue.
For Wireshark versions 4.0.0 through 4.0.14, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue.
For Wireshark versions 3.6.0 through 3.6.22, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the MONGO and ZigBee TLV dissectors to minimize the risk of exploitation.
