Comment # 2 on bug 10959 from
Moreover in case of invalid length, which one should be used to jump to the
next option? The theoretical one, assuming that only the length field was badly
filled? Or the one indicated in the option (assuming that the packet contains
unauthorized padding)? I guess the latter could be the most meaningful but
could still fail depending on the initial error(typically it could lead to
weird things when fuzzing a capture).
Or we keep the current conservative approach: stopping dissection as soon as
something invalid is seen.
