Hi all,

Is this the correct place to report Ethereal bugs?

I have found a bug with Ethereal 09.11 and 09.12, for the O-UNI PATH, RESV and CONFIRM messages.

The SENDER_TSPEC object in the PATH message, and the FLOWSPEC object in the RESV and CONFIRM object are trying to decode the 'Profile' field.

Because the O-UNI 1.0 standard refers to the following ID (not the later versions), the Profile field does not exist in either of these objects, and the objects are only 16 bytes long.

Ethereal is trying to decode the first 4 bytes of the next object in the message as the Profile field.

Please let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks,
Sally
