The bug (2470) was originally found because a packet pattern generated by
fuzz-testing triggered a 'reassembly' bug. 

I thought at the time (when I fixed the bug) that the pattern was quite
pathological and would rarely (if ever) be seen in the real world. 

Well: the pattern has now shown up "in the wild" as in your attached file...

I've queued up the fix (svn #25343) to be included in the next maintenance
release (1.0.2) [which won't happen for a while since 1.0.1 was just released].
(I should have marked the fix to be included in the 1.0.1 release).

The fix has been in development Wireshark builds for a while. A development
Windows build install package can be downloaded from 
http://www.wireshark.org/download/automated/win32/


Thanks for the report !
