Packet capture with bad hop by hop header
Build Information:
Version 1.6.5 (SVN Rev 40429 from /trunk-1.6)
--
When reassembling TCP segments ("Follow TCP Stream"), TCP segments with invalid
hop-by-hop headers, that are discarded by the target system, are used. As a
result, the TCP stream is reassembled wrong if two segments use the same serial
numbers, but the first one includes a bad hop-by-hop header.
See attached pcap for an example. The connection actually used the host name
"sec546.com", but Wireshark's reassembly wrongly shows "xxxxxx.com".
