Hi,

Looking further into it I think the regression is introduced in  

commit

5460d7fa0cd13f84ff567c96ee89d07b37cd4b62

https://code.wireshark.org/review/gitweb?p=wireshark.git;a=commit;h=5460d7fa0cd13f84ff567c96ee89d07b37cd4b62

 

I suspect (PTREE_FINFO(tree)->ds_tvb

May be NULL if the previous item was faked.
