Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities in epan/dissectors/packet-wccp.c in the WCCP dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.12 and 1.12.x before 1.12.3 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet, related to the use of packet-scope memory instead of pinfo-scope memory.

CVE-2015-0559 CVE-2015-0560 wireshark: WCCP dissector crash (wnpa-sec-2015-01)
It was reported that Wireshark's WCCP dissector could crash. It may be possible to make Wireshark crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file.
This is reported to affect Wireshark versions 1.12.0 to 1.12.2, and 1.10.0 to 1.10.11. It is fixed in versions 1.12.3 and 1.10.12.

Talos is constantly researching the ways in which threat actors take advantage of security weaknesses to exploit systems. Yves Younan of Talos will be presenting at CanSecWest on Friday March 20th. The topic of his talk will be FreeSentry, a software-based mitigation technique developed by Talos to protect against exploitation of use-after-free vulnerabilities. Use-after-free vulnerabilities have become an important class of security problems due to the existence of mitigations that protect against other types of vulnerabilities, such as buffer overflows.
