Nice analysis!

Interestingly I could not reproduce the problem using your steps directly, but
I was able to (every time) by:

1) setting the WIRESHARK_DEBUG_SCRUB_MEMORY environment variable
2) goto frame 33 (doesn't matter if 41 is visible)
3) apply a filter

(Step 1 ensures that all ep_ allocated memory is scrubbed, thus removing the
requirement for packet 41's allocations to do the overwriting.)

Not surprisingly, this problem is new to the new packet list; Synopsis updated.
 Importance bumped up a bit too.

I don't know enough about way the packet list stuff works to be of much help,
but here's a backtrace showing where add_byte_views() is causing a redraw which
is causing a redissection (and subsequently an scrub/overwrite of the ep
memory):
