Hi,
I think a TRY CATCH block is the thing to use. Grep for CTACH and I think you will find a bunch of examples.

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Handling malformed packet exceptions from within ASN.1 dissectors

Hi folks,

I am using some of the existing ASN.1 dissectors from within the
ieee802.11 dissector, and in some cases the frame is malformed in the
ASN.1 portion.

However, since it is within an IE where I know the length of the element, I would like to regain control and add an Expert Info and then keep dissecting.

How can I handle this?
