NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream wireshark package and not the wireshark package as distributed by Debian.

In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.7, the IEEE 802.11 protocol dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/crypt/airpdcap.c via bounds checking that prevents a buffer over-read.
