SDP protocol dissector crash in Wireshark 4.6.0 to 4.6.4 allows denial of service

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in Wireshark 4.6.0 through 4.6.4 via crafted SDP protocol packets allows local attackers with user interaction to crash the application through a use-after-free memory corruption vulnerability in the SDP protocol dissector. EPSS and KEV status not available at analysis time; no public exploit code identified.

Technical ContextAI

Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer that dissects and displays captured packet data. The vulnerability exists in the SDP (Session Description Protocol) dissector component, which parses multimedia session description information typically found in SIP and multimedia sessions. The underlying root cause is CWE-416 (Use After Free), a memory safety issue where freed memory is referenced again, leading to undefined behavior including denial of service or potential code execution. The SDP dissector processes structured text-based protocol messages that describe multimedia sessions, and improper state management or reference tracking in the parser allows this memory corruption condition.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to Wireshark 4.6.5 or later, or to the next stable major release when available. Users unable to immediately patch should avoid opening untrusted or unverified packet capture files (.pcap, .pcapng) and SDP protocol streams in Wireshark until patched. If analysis of potentially malicious SDP traffic is necessary, consider running Wireshark in a sandboxed or isolated environment with reduced privileges to limit impact of a crash. Verify the patch version against the official Wireshark security advisory at https://www.wireshark.org/security/wnpa-sec-2026-19.html before deployment.
