I'd be against inclusion too... Wireshark is a Protocol-Analyzer not a
Network Penetration Analysis tool or something similar. from that PoV
it's just unappropriate...

On the other hand someone has to tell the sysadmin to dump that key
ASAP, bad guys know it's broken already. 65536 attempts to see if
eventually we could decrypt and add an expert item in regarding the
vulnerability would be appropriate.

I Abstain from voting.
