Wireshark stack-based out-of-bounds read in getRate
Project Member Reported by mjurczyk@google.com, Nov 27 2015 Back to list
The following crash due to a stack-based out-of-bounds memory read can be observed in an ASAN build of Wireshark (current git master), by feeding a malformed file to tshark ("$ ./tshark -nVxr /path/to/file"):

Address 0x7ffe26462c20 is located in stack of thread T0 at offset 160 in frame
    #0 0x9cf32f in getRate wireshark/wiretap/vwr.c:2261

  This frame has 6 object(s):

    [112, 144) 'canonical_ndbps_20_ht'
    [176, 208) 'canonical_ndbps_40_ht' <== Memory access at offset 160 underflows this variable

    [400, 440) 'canonical_ndbps_80_vht'
HINT: this may be a false positive if your program uses some custom stack unwind mechanism or swapcontext
      (longjmp and C++ exceptions *are* supported)
