    descriptionThe version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 2.0.x prior to 2.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the following components, which can result in a memory disclosure, a denial of service, or the execution of arbitrary code : - 3GPP TS 32.423 Trace file parser - ASN.1 BER dissector - DNP dissector - GSM A-bis OML dissector - HiQnet dissector - HTTP/2 dissector - IEEE 802.11 dissector - iSeries file parser - Ixia IxVeriWave file parser - LBMC dissector - LLRP dissector - NFS dissector - RSL dissector - SPICE dissector - X.509AF dissector Additionally, a flaw related to how dynamic-link library (DLL) files are located and loaded exists in the ui/qt/wireshark_application.cpp file due to the application using a DLL search path that may include directories that are not trusted or under the user
