After a quick look:

I agree that body of the each of the loops is not executed when offset == 0 and
there's data remaining in the tvb.

However: The patch you propose will execute the body of each loop even if
"length_remaining" == 0.

That doesn't seem right.  :)

How about something like:

while(length_remaining > 0) {
    last_offset = offset;
    offset = ...
    if (offset == last_offset)
        break;
}

Do you have a capture file which shows the problem ?

If so, can you attach it (or a small subset) to this bug ?

Thanks ...
