Thanks. I found the problem. It was the "proto_tree_add_protocol_format"
function. I gave an incorrect starting offset

Subject: Re: [Wireshark-dev] malformed packet for no reason
I guess the packet you are trying to dissect is shorter than your two
loops over
i and j assume. In your inner loop you do something like:
*plen += data_size;
So plen will be greater than
num_of_data_arrs*num_of_data_chunks*data_size
bytes. Then you do a
val_ptr = tvb_get_ptr(tvb, *plen, data_size);
But tvb_get_ptr() can return NULL when out of bounds of the current
packet. I
guess this condition is reached on your 6th iteration.
