SMB specs:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/developr/drg/CIFS/dosextp.txt
frame 2 appears to be an "Interim Response Format" packet:
9.2.17. TRANSACTION
...
Interim Response Format (if no error - ok send remaining
data):
BYTE smb_wct; /* value = 0 */
WORD smb_bcc; /* value = 0 */
...
Response Format (may respond with zero or more of these):
BYTE smb_wct; /* value = (10 + value of smb_suwcnt) */
WORD smb_tprcnt; /* total number of parameter bytes being returned */
WORD smb_tdrcnt; /* total number of data bytes being returned */
WORD smb_rsvd; /* reserved */
WORD smb_prcnt; /* number of parameter bytes being returned this buf */
...
However, the SMB dissector for TRANSACTION replies doesn't quit at the
"Total Parameter Count" field ("smb_bcc"), but continues on after that -
but there's nothing more in the packet, so it gets the "Parameter Count"
value, and all the other stuff that's after the "Total Parameter Count"
field, from whatever random junk happens to be in memory after the end
of the packet.
(This particular interim response is an error response, but an interim
response could also be sent if the client is sending data to the server
and the data doesn't fit in a single buffer. There's a rather long
explanation in the document in question, in section 9.2.17.)
So "packet-smb.c" should be patched as follows:
