Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wireshark versions 1.12.x through 1.12.9 Wireshark versions 2.0.x through 2.0.1

Description The issue is related to the dissct rsl ipaccess msg function in the RSL dissector, which mishandles the case of an unrecognized TLV type. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an out-of-bounds read and application crash, via a crafted packet.
