25
FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-11407 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in Wireshark versions 2.2.0-2.2.7 and 2.0.0-2.0.13, where a crafted MQ packet could cause the application to crash due to insufficient validation of fragment length during reassembly. This high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) allows an unauthenticated attacker to remotely impact availability without user interaction. While a patch exists, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion, suggesting a low current threat profile.
