WireShark MMS DoS Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
MMS message parse flaw in WireShark implementation may allow a remote
attacker to crash it causing denial of service.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* WireShark versions prior to 0.99.6
Immune Systems:
* WireShark version 0.99.6
WireShark parsing a MMS message whose Content-Type is
application/vnd.wap.multipart.mixed, and the header length of a multipart
content equals to 0x00, will cause it to crash.
Solution:
Update to WireShark version 0.99.6
Exploit:

#include <winsock2.h>
#include <stdio.h>
