Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.08%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In Wireshark 2.6.0, 2.4.0 to 2.4.6, and 2.2.0 to 2.2.14, the LDSS dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-ldss.c by avoiding a buffer over-read upon encountering a missing '\0' character.
