epan/dissectors/packet-ipmi-trace.c in the IPMI trace dissector in Wireshark 2.x before 2.0.6 does not properly consider whether a string is constant, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and application crash) via a crafted packet.

CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.9. CVSS Attack Vector: network. CVSS Attack Complexity: high. CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
CVSS 2.0 Base Score 4.3. CVSS Attack Vector: network. CVSS Attack Complexity: medium. CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P).
The following example demonstrates the weakness.
}free(buf3R2);
The following code illustrates a use after free error:
}free(ptr);logError("operation aborted before commit", ptr);
When an error occurs, the pointer is immediately freed. However, this pointer is later incorrectly used in the logError function.
