           Summary: Wireshark crashes while reading capture file
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: 1.0.8
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Red Hat
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Medium
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: jmk@xxxxxxxxxx


Build Information:
wireshark 1.0.8

Compiled with GTK+ 1.2.10, with GLib 1.2.10, with libpcap 0.6, with libz 1.1.3,
with POSIX capabilities (Linux), without libpcre, without SMI, without ADNS,
without Lua, without GnuTLS, without Gcrypt, without Kerberos, without
PortAudio, without AirPcap.
NOTE: this build doesn't support the "matches" operator for Wireshark filter
syntax.

Running on Linux 2.6.23.17-88.fc7, with libpcap (version unknown).

Built using gcc 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-110).

--
This binary was built on a system running RedHat 7.3. It was configured to use
gtk-1.2, gdk-1.2, glib-1.2. wireshark crashes right after the "Loading:
your_file" dialog box appears.

The bug appears to be at wireshark-1.0.8/file.c line number 1032. This code is
specific to pre glib-2.0. The code immediately following the loop writes past
the space allocated for the array.

I also had crash problems with the previous release (1.0.7) using this
configuration. Version 1.0.6 did not exhibit this behavior.
