Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Wireshark versions 1.8.x through 1.8.8 Wireshark versions 1.10.x through 1.10.0

Description The issue is related to the parseFields function in the DIS dissector, which does not properly terminate packet-data processing after finding zero remaining bytes. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop) via a crafted packet.
