Build Information:
Wireshark git master.

The following crash due to a stack-based out-of-bounds memory read can be observed in an ASAN build of Wireshark (current git master), by feeding a malformed file to tshark ("$ ./tshark -nVxr /path/to/file"):

Attached are three files which trigger the crash.

This bug is not that bad, it is "just" a read outside boundaries (by at most 244 bytes). Garbage in, garbage out.
