NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream wireshark-devel package and not the wireshark-devel package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.5, the 6LoWPAN dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-6lowpan.c by avoiding use of a TVB before its creation.
