CVE-2020-13164 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In Wireshark 3.2.0 to 3.2.3, 3.0.0 to 3.0.10, and 2.6.0 to 2.6.16, the NFS dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-nfs.c by preventing excessive recursion, such as for a cycle in the directory graph on a filesystem.. EPSS estimates a 3.20% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
