CVE-2015-3814 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in Wireshark versions 1.10.x before 1.10.14 and 1.12.x before 1.12.5, specifically within the IEEE 802.11 dissector functions dissect_tfs_request and dissect_tfs_response. An attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted packet that causes an infinite loop due to the software interpreting a zero value as a length rather than an error. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0, indicating a medium severity with low attack complexity and potential for denial of service. There is no evidence of active exploitation, publicly available exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
