CVE-2015-8723
La función AirPDcapPacketProcess en epan/crypt/airpdcap.c en el disector 802.11 en Wireshark 1.12.x en versiones anteriores a 1.12.9 y 2.0.x en versiones anteriores a 2.0.1 no valida la relación entre la longitud total y la longitud de caputra, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento de buffer basado en pila y caída de aplicación) a través de un paquete manipulado.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 5.5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 4.69%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 92
- Fecha de la puntuación: 9/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
