Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.59%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In Wireshark 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 and 2.0.0 to 2.0.7, the AllJoyn dissector could crash with a buffer over-read, triggered by network traffic or a capture file. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-alljoyn.c by ensuring that a length variable properly tracked the state of a signature variable.
