Wireshark version 2.2.7
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically a stack exhaustion, in the
dissect IODWriteReq function. This occurs when handling PROFINET IO data with a high recursion depth.Recommendations
For Wireshark version 2.2.7, consider updating to a newer version to mitigate the risk of stack exhaustion due to high recursion depth in PROFINET IO data handling. As a temporary workaround, restrict the handling of PROFINET IO data to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
