epan/tvbuff.c in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.13 and 1.8.x before 1.8.5 does not properly validate certain length values for the MS-MMC dissector, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy Wireshark crash issue. A malformed packet can make vulnerable Wireshark versions stop running while dissecting MS-MMC traffic. The business impact is disruption to packet analysis workflows, not evidence of data theft or system takeover in the provided sources. Exposure is most likely on old analyst workstations, monitoring systems, or forensic environments still using Wireshark 1.6.x or 1.8.x before the fixed releases. Current deployments are unlikely to be affected, but legacy packaged systems should be checked. Treat as a legacy hygiene issue unless vulnerable Wireshark builds are still used in operations. Prioritize remediation on security monitoring and forensic systems that process untrusted network traffic or packet captures. 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 openSUSE security updates where those packages are used..
