NVD Description

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

In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.4 and 2.2.0 to 2.2.12, the IEEE 802.11 dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/crypt/airpdcap.c by rejecting lengths that are too small.
