Wireshark 4.6.7 patches a dozen security flaws

Wireshark 4.6.7 addresses twelve security vulnerabilities across multiple protocol dissectors and capture file handlers. The fixes primarily target crash conditions triggered by malformed packets or crafted capture files in cellular signaling and disk-based parsing code.

Why it matters: Network analysts and security teams using Wireshark to inspect packet captures face denial of service or potential code execution risks when processing untrusted traffic data; update to 4.6.7 immediately.
