Description Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-03-03 15:16:57 UTC
Stack consumption vulnerability in the dissect_ber_choice function in the BER dissector in Wireshark 1.2.x through 1.2.15 and 1.4.x through 1.4.4 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via vectors involving self-referential ASN.1 CHOICE values.

Two years old, vulnerable versions gone from tree long time ago, GLSA for new versions pending. Marking this as OBSOLETE
