Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wireshark versions 2.0.0 through 2.0.12 Wireshark versions 2.2.0 through 2.2.6

Description The issue arises in the SoulSeek dissector, which could enter an infinite loop. This was resolved by making loop bounds more explicit in the epan/dissectors/packet-slsk.c file.
