We have observed certain SDP files describing H.264 streams, in which the
sprops-parameter-sets parameter is slightly malformed; namely the SPS NALU has
an extra zero byte appended to the end.
This does not cause any problems to any real RTSP client that we have seen, but
Wireshark reports a malformed packet and does not display any lines of the SDP
file after the offending a=fmtp line.
It turns out this is caused by a simple buffer underrun in packet-h264.c; in
dissect_h264_nal_unit(), tvb_get_bits32 is called without first checking that
there are at least 4 bytes left in the buffer.
Fixing this unmasks another problem; the proto_tree_add_text calls in this
function pass the data starting _after_ the NALU type byte; if there is no
further data then these calls will throw an exception, again causing a
malformed packet error. This can be fixed by passing the data starting _at_ the
NALU type byte, guaranteeing that the data will cover at least one byte.
Patch follows.
