NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream wireshark-debuginfo package and not the wireshark-debuginfo package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2018.03 relevant fixed versions and status.

The dissect_sip_common function in epan/dissectors/packet-sip.c in the SIP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.12 and 1.10.x before 1.10.4 does not check for empty lines, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted packet.
