Summary

Buffer overflow in the dissect_gsm_rlcmac_downlink function in epan/dissectors/packet-gsm_rlcmac.c in the GSM RLC MAC dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.10 and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed packet.

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Overflow Buffers
    Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
  • Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow
    This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
  • Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow
    In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
  • MIME Conversion
    An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

    descriptionMultiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in wireshark : Infinite and large loops in ANSI MAP, BACapp, Bluetooth HCI, IEEE 802.3, LTP, and R3 dissectors have been fixed. Discovered by Laurent Butti (http://www.wireshark.org/security/wnpa-sec-2012-08.html [CVE-2012-2392]) The DIAMETER dissector could try to allocate memory improperly and crash (http://www.wireshark.org/security/wnpa-sec-2012-09.html [CVE-2012-2393]) Wireshark could crash on SPARC processors due to misaligned memory.

    descriptionThe remote Solaris system is missing necessary patches to address security updates : - The dissect_pft function in epan/dissectors/packet-dcp-etsi.c in the DCP ETSI dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a zero-length message. (CVE-2012-4285) - The pcapng_read_packet_block function in wiretap/pcapng.c in the pcap-ng file parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a crafted pcap-ng file. (CVE-2012-4286) - epan/dissectors/packet-mongo.c in the MongoDB dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption) via a small value for a BSON document length. (CVE-2012-4287) - Integer overflow in the dissect_xtp_ecntl function in epan/dissectors/ packet-xtp.c in the XTP dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop or application crash) via a large value for a span length. (CVE-2012-4288) - epan/dissectors/packet-afp.c in the AFP dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption) via a large number of ACL entries. (CVE-2012-4289) - The CTDB dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4290) - The CIP dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4291) - The dissect_stun_message function in epan/dissectors/packet-stun.c in the STUN dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 does not properly interact with key-destruction behavior in a certain tree library, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4292) - plugins/ethercat/packet-ecatmb.c in the EtherCAT Mailbox dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 does not properly handle certain integer fields, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application exit) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4293) - Buffer overflow in the channelised_fill_sdh_g707_format function in epan/ dissectors/packet-erf.c in the ERF dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large speed (aka rate) value. (CVE-2012-4294) - Array index error in the channelised_fill_sdh_g707_format function in epan/ dissectors/packet-erf.c in the ERF dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.2 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted speed (aka rate) value. (CVE-2012-4295) - Buffer overflow in epan/dissectors/packet-rtps2.c in the RTPS2 dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4296) - Buffer overflow in the dissect_gsm_rlcmac_downlink function in epan/dissectors/ packet-gsm_rlcmac.c in the GSM RLC MAC dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.10 and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4297) - Integer signedness error in the vwr_read_rec_data_ethernet function in wiretap/ vwr.c in the Ixia IxVeriWave file parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet-trace file that triggers a buffer overflow. (CVE-2012-4298)

    descriptionWireshark reports : It may be possible to make Wireshark crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. It may be possible to make Wireshark consume excessive CPU resources by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. The PPP dissector could crash. The NFS dissector could use excessive amounts of CPU. The DCP ETSI dissector could trigger a zero division. The MongoDB dissector could go into a large loop. The XTP dissector could go into an infinite loop. The ERF dissector could overflow a buffer. The AFP dissector could go into a large loop. The RTPS2 dissector could overflow a buffer. The GSM RLC MAC dissector could overflow a buffer. The CIP dissector could exhaust system memory. The STUN dissector could crash. The EtherCAT Mailbox dissector could abort. The CTDB dissector could go into a large loop. The pcap-ng file parser could trigger a zero division. The Ixia IxVeriWave file parser could overflow a buffer.
