1) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU42575

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2013-5717

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The Bluetooth HCI ACL dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.2 does not properly maintain a certain free list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet that is not properly handled by the wmem_block_alloc function in epan/wmem/wmem_allocator_block.c.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.
