vulnerabilities :
- A data type mismatch error exists in the function
'dissect_nfs_clientaddr4' in the file 'packet-nfs.c' of
the NFS dissector and could lead to application crashes
while decoding 'SETCLIENTID' calls. (5209)
- A use-after-free error exists in the file
'asn1/x509if/x509if.cnf' of the X.509if dissector that
could lead to application crashes. (5754, 5793)
- An buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the file
'packet-dect.c' of the DECT dissector that could allow
arbitrary code execution. (5836)"
