NVD Description

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

The dissect_nbap_T_dCH_ID function in epan/dissectors/packet-nbap.c in the NBAP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.10 and 1.10.x before 1.10.2 does not restrict the dch_id value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet.
