high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 400884

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.12, the Bazaar dissector could go into an infinite loop. This
was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-bzr.c by ensuring that backwards parsing cannot occur.
(CVE-2017-9352)

- In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.12, the MSNIP dissector misuses a NULL pointer. This was
addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-msnip.c by validating an IPv4 address. (CVE-2017-9343)

- In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.12, the Bluetooth L2CAP dissector could divide by zero. This
was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-btl2cap.c by validating an interval value. (CVE-2017-9344)

- In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.12, the DNS dissector could go into an infinite loop. This
was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-dns.c by trying to detect self-referencing pointers.
(CVE-2017-9345)

- In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.6 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.12, the SoulSeek dissector could go into an infinite loop.
This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-slsk.c by making loop bounds more explicit. (CVE-2017-9346)
