NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream wireshark-gnome package and not the wireshark-gnome package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.7 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.13, the MQ dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-mq.c by validating the fragment length before a reassembly attempt.
