[REJECTED CVE] A denial of service flaw was found in the way RTCP dissector of Wireshark, a network traffic analyzer, performed dissection of certain RTCP packet capture files. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted RTCP packet / packet capture that, once processed, would lead to excessive CPU consumption or into situation where tshark executable would enter an infinite loop, when trying to process the crafted packet / packet capture file.
Statement: This CVE has been rejected. This candidate is a duplicate of CVE-2012-6062. Note: All CVE users should reference CVE-2012-6062 instead of this candidate.
