| Detailed Description |
The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 2.6.x prior to 2.6.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities in the following protocol dissectors:
- 6LoWPAN
- P_MUL
- RTSE
- ISAKMP
An attacker could cause Wireshark to crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire, or by convincing a user to read a malformed packet trace file.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of this condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
