Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wireshark versions 1.10.x through 1.10.12 Wireshark versions 1.12.x through 1.12.3

Description The issue arises from improper initialization of a data structure in the WCP dissector, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service. This can be achieved through a crafted packet that is not handled correctly during decompression, resulting in an out-of-bounds read and application crash.
