The ZigBee APS decoder does not take into account if the NWK layer is
encrypted.  When the NWK layer is encrypted, the APS decoder attempts to
interpret the data, despite the content being encrypted.

The APS decoder should check the status of the NWK layer and not attempt to
decode the APS layer is the payload is encrypted by NWK.

I've attached a pcap example of this behavior.  Frame 88 is a good example,
though many exist in this capture.

If desired, feel free to post this packet capture as a sample for other users
to use as well.  I collected the data from my home network and am authorized to
release it publicly.

Thanks for adding ZigBee support to Wireshark.
