This looks a lot like bad frame padding, the packet itself should have
actually ended, right where the 'M-SEARCH' stuff starts.
Normally this is padded with zero's till the frame is 46 bytes,
but a lot of drivers (especially from Linux) didn't properly pad, so
then you can see old memory contents.. like from network buffers.
