The rtps_util_add_bitmap function in epan/dissectors/packet-rtps.c in the RTPS dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.13 and 1.8.x before 1.8.5 does not properly implement certain nested loops for processing bitmap data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a malformed packet.

CVE-2013-1579 wireshark: Nested loop (crash) in the RTPS dissector (wnpa-sec-2013-01, bug 8198)
A denial of service flaw was found in the way RTPS dissector of Wireshark, a network traffic analyzer, performed dissection of certain RTPS packet capture files. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted RTPS packet / packet capture that, when processed, would lead to nested loop or tshark executable crash, when trying to process the crafted packet / packet capture file.
