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: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-7379 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2026-7379/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7379/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-7379","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7379/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-7379","record":{"aliases":["AZL-85148","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-7379","GHSA-253w-rh2x-47g3","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-7379"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network protocol analyzer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A memory leak in Wireshark's sharkd component allows attackers to cause a denial of service by exhausting system memory.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitLab","cpe":[{"product":"wireshark","vendor":"wireshark"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-401","name":"Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime"}],"description":"Memory leak in sharkd 4.6.0 to 4.6.4 and 4.4.0 to 4.4.14 allows denial of service","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime in Wireshark","id":"CVE-2026-7379","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"wireshark:wireshark","products":["wireshark:wireshark"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"HTML Injection in Armiya Technologies' Access Control System","id":"CVE-2026-7380"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Heap-based Buffer Overflow in Wireshark","id":"CVE-2026-7378"},"products":["Wireshark"],"published":"2026-04-30","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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-30","vendors":["Wireshark Foundation"]},"summary":"A memory leak in Wireshark's sharkd component allows attackers to cause a denial of service by exhausting system memory.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7379/"}
