Log:
Prevent potential crash in libsmi.
From: Vincent Bernat <bernat@xxxxxxxxxx>
Since SVN #32006 was committed, the following messages appear when
tshark and Wireshark are started.
For Wireshark the messages appear as popup Windows which must be
dismissed !!
----------
tshark: Stopped processing module SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB due to error(s) to
prevent potential crash in libsmi.
Module's conformance level: 0.
See details at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560325
tshark: Stopped processing module SNMP-MPD-MIB due to error(s) to
prevent potential crash in libsmi.
Module's conformance level: 0.
See details at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560325
tshark: Stopped processing module SNMP-PROXY-MIB due to error(s) to
prevent potential crash in libsmi.
Module's conformance level: 0.
See details at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560325
----------
Needing to dismiss popup windows each time Wireshark is started is
obviously a non-starter. :)
So; What should be done ?? (I know zilch about SNMP MIBS).
Bill
I wanted to commit the attached patch, but I realized, that preferences
are read _after_ loading the SMI modules. :-(
Could we read prefs earlier, maybe twice?
Cheers,
Balint
