Wireshark can't decrypt WPA(2)-PSK when passphrase is 63 bytes.

Enclosed file:
wpa2-aes pass_63 cant_decode fil.pcap
SSID is WPATEST
passphrase is 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123

Decryption mode is set to: wireshark
Data captured using airpcap

Note: I noticed that wireshark could decrypt a 62-byte passphrase encrypted
capture data even when the passphrase value entered in wireshark's decryption
keys window was the 63-byte value above (the 62-byte passphrase I used for
encryption was the above passphrase minus the last character. Could the bug be
due to some kind of truncation error in the user interface ?)
