CVE-2013-4082
Last modified
CVE-2013-4082 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The vwr_read function in wiretap/vwr.c in the Ixia IxVeriWave file parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.8 does not validate the relationship between a record length and a trailer length, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted packet.. EPSS estimates a 4.63% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
