Last modified
CVE-2012-0043 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Buffer overflow in the reassemble_message function in epan/dissectors/packet-rlc.c in the RLC dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.11 and 1.6.x before 1.6.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a series of fragmented RLC packets.. EPSS estimates a 3.16% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
