Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-9273)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists in epan/dissectors/packet-pcp.c due to memory leak. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted packet trace file and cause the TN3270, ISUP, LAPD, SMB2, GIOP, ASN.1, MIME multipart, H.223, and PCP dissectors to crash.
2) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-7320)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in epan/dissectors/packet-sigcomp.c within SIGCOMP protocol dissector. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-7334)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in epan/dissectors/packet-umts_mac.c when rejecting of a certain reserved value. A remote attacker can cause UMTS MAC dissector to crash.
4) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-7335)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in epan/crypt/airpdcap.c when rejecting lengths that are too small. A remote attacker can cause the IEEE 802.11 dissector to crash.
5) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-7419)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to boundary error in epan/dissectors/asn1/nbap/nbap.cnf when DCH ID initialization. A remote attacker can cause the NBAP dissector to crash.
6) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-9261)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists in epan/dissectors/packet-nbap.c due to prohibiting the self-linking of DCH-IDs. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted packet trace file, trigger infinite loop and heap-based buffer overflow and cause the NBAP dissector to crash.
7) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-9264)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists in epan/dissectors/packet-adb.c due to checking for a length inconsistency. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted packet trace file, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and cause the ADB dissector to crash.
8) Use-after-free error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11358)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists in epan/dissectors/packet-q931.c due to use-after-free memory error. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet onto the wire or convince someone to read a malformed packet trace file, trigger memory corruption and cause the Q.931 dissector and other dissectors to crash.
9) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11360)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists in epan/dissectors/packet-gsm_a_dtap.c due to off-by-one error. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet onto the wire or convince someone to read a malformed packet trace file, trigger buffer overflow and cause the GSM A DTAP dissector to crash.
10) Buffer over-read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11362)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.The weakness exists in epan/dissectors/packet-ldss.c due to buffer over-read upon encountering a missing '' character. A remote attacker can inject a malformed packet onto the wire or convince someone to read a malformed packet trace file, trigger memory corruption and cause the LDSS dissector to crash.
