Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.74%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In Wireshark 2.4.0 to 2.4.12 and 2.6.0 to 2.6.6, the RPCAP dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-rpcap.c by avoiding an attempted dereference of a NULL conversation.
