CVE-2009-4376
Buffer overflow in the daintree_sna_read function in the Daintree SNA file parser in Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.77%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
