It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2015-8736 exists.\n\nAffected product: Wireshark Wireshark. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8736/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8736/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-8736","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8736/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-8736","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2015-8736","GHSA-f7mh-8r75-ggrf","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-8736"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Wireshark network analyzer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via a stack-based buffer overflow in Wireshark's MP2T parser using a crafted file.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"wireshark","vendor":"wireshark"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The mp2t_find_next_pcr function in wiretap/mp2t.c in the MP2T file parser in Wireshark 2.0.x before 2.0.1 does not reserve memory for a trailer, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2015-12-16","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2015-12-16","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"38997","stars":null,"title":"Wireshark - file_read 'wtap_read_bytes_or_eof/mp2t_find_next_pcr' Stack Buffer Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8736","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"wireshark:wireshark","products":["wireshark:wireshark"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8737"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8735"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-01-04","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0444","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-12"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2994","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2995","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1266","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1210","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-01"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3146","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6112","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-11-23"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via a stack-based buffer overflow in Wireshark's MP2T parser using a crafted file.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8736/"}
