The dissect_pft_fec_detailed function in epan/dissectors/packet-dcp-etsi.c in the DCP-ETSI dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.13 and 1.8.x before 1.8.5 does not properly handle fragment gaps, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop) via a malformed packet.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2013-1581 is a Wireshark denial-of-service flaw. A malformed packet can make affected Wireshark versions loop while dissecting DCP-ETSI data, potentially freezing analysis workstations or monitoring systems that process such traffic. Exposure is most likely where legacy Wireshark 1.6.x or 1.8.x is used to inspect live traffic or packet captures containing DCP-ETSI traffic. The provided affected-product metadata is incomplete, but the description names specific Wireshark branches. Prioritize remediation for systems that automatically process packet captures or monitor live traffic. Business impact is availability loss, not confirmed code execution or data theft, but affected analysis tooling can disrupt incident response workflows. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Wireshark 1.6.x to 1.6.13 or later.; Upgrade Wireshark 1.8.x to 1.8.5 or later.; Apply relevant operating-system vendor Wireshark updates..
