Title:	Wireshark LDSS Dissector Buffer Overflow Vulnerability - Windows
Summary:	Wireshark is prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight: The flaw is due to heap-based buffer overflow in 'dissect_ldss_transfer()' function (epan/dissectors/packet-ldss.c) in the LDSS dissector, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an LDSS packet with a long digest line. Vulnerability Impact: Successful exploitation will allow attackers to crash the application. Affected Software/OS: Wireshark version 1.2.0 to 1.2.12 and 1.4.0 to 1.4.1 Solution: Upgrade to Wireshark 1.4.2 or 1.2.13 later. CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
