CVE-2005-2364
Unknown vulnerability in the (1) GIOP dissector, (2) WBXML, or (3) CAMEL dissector in Ethereal 0.8.20 through 0.10.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via certain packets that cause a null pointer dereference.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.59%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
