There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 wireshark-devel.

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 RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.7, the AllJoyn dissector could crash with a buffer over-read, triggered by network traffic or a capture file. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-alljoyn.c by ensuring that a length variable properly tracked the state of a signature variable.
