Description Andreas Stieger 2023-10-04 18:33:42 UTC 
It may be possible to make Wireshark consume excessive CPU resources by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. The RTPS dissector could leak memory.

This is fixed in versions: 4.0.9, 3.6.17
