You were right, it does load OK on my up-to-date (linux) build.

I did notice that the expert info notes a couple of malformed SSL frames...  Could you please try to load the attached file?  I saved only the frames using the display filter 'wimasncp and not eap'.  This will indicate if the problem lies within EAP/SSL or inside wimaxasncp itself.

Another possible difference between yourself and your colleagues may be preference settings you may have.  Have you changed any SSL protocol preferences?

I still think its worth installing the very latest automated build I linked to earlier to see if the problem persists there.

I did try to run Wireshark under valgrind a few minutes ago with your capture, but it didn't get very far...

You are correct, I did not build Wireshark myself – I downloaded the

official 0.99.7 version (several times just to make sure).

 

I'll attach the capture file I use but others have used 0.99.7 to open this

same capture file without any issue.  I would not be surprised if you can

open the file successfully.  Note that I have tried 4 or 5 different

capture files and each time I crash.  I do not capture the file(s)

myself, I am only trying to open a file that was captured by another

device.  Others can open this file and I can open other files that do not

contain WiMAX.

 

I can not narrow it down to a frame since when I try and open the file it

crashes before any frames are displayed.  If I disable WiMAX ASN CP

protocol I can open the file but as soon as I enable that protocol

(for example after the file is open) it crashes.

 

 

Thanks.

Most likely Wireshark is crashing because of a bug in the wimaxasncp dissector.

If you are able to send (attach to a bug) a capture file that causes this problem, I can try to debug it.  You can always try to trim the message down to one frame (disable, wimaxasncp, save the displayed frames, etc until you narrow it down to the frame that causes the problem.

If you can't send in a capture file, you'll need to try to get the stack at the point where it crashes (it looks like you're using the official 0.99.7 release, so I'm guessing you didn't build Wireshark yourself).  You could try using the most recent development build from http://www.wireshark.org/download/automated/win32/, although I don't believe the wimaxasncp dissector has been changed since the release.

Here's all I have … (when I open any capture file that has WiMAX R6 messages

I get the error and Wireshark closes – nothing is shown in the wireshark

window before it closes).

Hi,

Could you post a capture file showing the problem?

Best add whatever details you can to bugilla (http://bugs.wireshark.org).

I can open (and decode) files with other protocols ( AAA, SIP, GTP, etc …),

it appears as if WiMAX is the only thing I'm having trouble with.

 

Any suggestions on how to fix my issue?

 

Regards.
