Severity: important

Please see https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5652
This has been assigned CVE-2011-0538. Since this can only be exploited
by enticing someone to open a malformed pcap file, but doesn''t warrant
a DSA. We can either queue up the fix for a future Wireshark DSA or
fix it through the 6.0.1 point update.
Cheers,
Moritz
