Comment # 4 on bug 11634 from
Alexis,

Using historic packages from
https://www.wireshark.org/download/win64/all-versions/
I can confirm that:

1.11.2 (5033435add3d880b188810361fcb6bfaf0fba4b1) is ok.

1.11.3 (1dd5d3a6aae79e6a1f566a9600264d8e91ffedd6) has the issue.

It looks like 1.11.2 assumed (correctly) that the PDU starts at frame offset
0x11, but with 1.11.3 PDU we are 8 octets further into at frame offset 0x19. 
The issue is the 8 octets that comprise the "ISO 10589 ISIS InTRA Domain
Routeing Information Exchange Protocol" tree objects are no longer available to
dissect_hello_checksum_clv() in the latter version.  These initial 8 octets
appear to be a required part of the PDU for purposes of checksum calculation.

I'm guessing with fresh eyes it should be possible to find issue if the diff
between these two versions.
