CVE-2010-0304 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-0304):
  Multiple buffer overflows in the LWRES dissector in Wireshark 0.9.15
  through 1.0.10 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.5 allow remote attackers to
  cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed packet, as
  demonstrated using a stack-based buffer overflow to the
  dissect_getaddrsbyname_request function.
