CVE-2007-3389 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in Wireshark versions prior to 0.99.6. This flaw allows remote attackers to crash the application by sending a specially crafted HTTP response containing a malformed chunked encoding, potentially involving a zero-length payload. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0, indicating a medium severity with low attack complexity and no authentication required, leading to a partial denial of service. While not actively exploited in the wild, a Metasploit module exists, and despite its age, it garners minimal community discussion or media coverage.
