In Wireshark 2.2.7, overly deep mp4 chunks may cause stack exhaustion (uncontrolled recursion) in the dissect_mp4_box function in epan/dissectors/file-mp4.c.
Weakness
The product does not properly control the amount of recursion that takes place, consuming excessive resources, such as allocated memory or the program stack.
