High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
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.
