In Wireshark 2.4.0 and 2.2.0 to 2.2.8, the Profinet I/O dissector could crash with an out-of-bounds write. This was addressed in plugins/profinet/packet-dcerpc-pn-io.c by adding string validation.

The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 2.2.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-2.2.9 advisory.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In Wireshark 2.4.0 and 2.2.0 to 2.2.8, the Profinet I/O dissector could crash with an out-of-bounds write.
    This was addressed in plugins/profinet/packet-dcerpc-pn-io.c by adding string validation. (CVE-2017-13766)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

New version 2.4.2, fixes CVE-2017-15189, CVE-2017-15190, CVE-2017-15191, CVE-2017-15192, CVE-2017-15193, CVE-2017-13764, CVE-2017-13765, CVE-2017-13766, CVE-2017-13767

Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

This update for wireshark to version 2.2.11 fixes several issues.
These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2017-13767: The MSDP dissector could have gone into     an infinite loop. This was addressed by adding length     validation (bsc#1056248)

  - CVE-2017-13766: The Profinet I/O dissector could have     crash with an out-of-bounds write. This was addressed by     adding string validation (bsc#1056249)

  - CVE-2017-13765: The IrCOMM dissector had a buffer     over-read and application crash. This was addressed by     adding length validation (bsc#1056251)

  - CVE-2017-9766: PROFINET IO data with a high recursion     depth allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (stack exhaustion) in the dissect_IODWriteReq     function (bsc#1045341)

  - CVE-2017-9617: Deeply nested DAAP data may have cause     stack exhaustion (uncontrolled recursion) in the     dissect_daap_one_tag function in the DAAP dissector     (bsc#1044417)

  - CVE-2017-15192: The BT ATT dissector could crash. This     was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-btatt.c by     considering a case where not all of the BTATT packets     have the same encapsulation level. (bsc#1062645)

  - CVE-2017-15193: The MBIM dissector could crash or     exhaust system memory. This was addressed in     epan/dissectors/packet-mbim.c by changing the     memory-allocation approach. (bsc#1062645)

  - CVE-2017-15191: The DMP dissector could crash. This was     addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-dmp.c by validating     a string length. (bsc#1062645)

  - CVE-2017-17083: NetBIOS dissector could crash. This was     addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-netbios.c by     ensuring that write operations are bounded by the     beginning of a buffer. (bsc#1070727)

  - CVE-2017-17084: IWARP_MPA dissector could crash. This     was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-iwarp-mpa.c by     validating a ULPDU length. (bsc#1070727)

  - CVE-2017-17085: the CIP Safety dissector could crash.
    This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-cipsafety.c     by validating the packet length. (bsc#1070727)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

It was discovered that wireshark, a network protocol analyzer, contained several vulnerabilities in the dissectors for CIP Safety, IWARP_MPA, NetBIOS, Profinet I/O and AMQP, which result in denial of dervice or the execution of arbitrary code.
