I found that wireshark-gnome crashes when saving a trace in the above format
and also when i try to open the file of above format (in wireshark-gnome)

I am attaching the trace for both the conditions. Sadly i cannot attach the
pcap-ng file since it contains network information.

Dies with SIGABRT, so it does not appear to have any security implication.
