<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending
|
|
specially crafted packets on a network being monitored by Wireshark or
|
|
by enticing a user to read a malformed packet trace file, causing a
|
|
Denial of Service.
|
|
</p>
|

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
