I don’t have any examples to share, but Lua does have support for compressed data in the form of tvbrange:uncompress(name).  You could searching at https://wiki.wireshark.org/Lua (as well as the examples and contrib pages) to *possibly* find some examples using it.

Subject: [Wireshark-users] LUA support for compressed protocols

 

Hello community,

Wireshark Developers' Guide in section 9.4 provides a rough guideline  for C dissector plugin. I am looking for some examples on how to handle compressed protocols (in the specific case -- something V.42bis over TCP inspired) in LUA. Are you aware of any such examples ?

 

Kind Regards

Ariel Burbaickij
