Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 1711] Some Toshiba format files with LAPD cannot be open
http://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1711

Sorry, Florent, I am lost.
To me, the point is not that a real ERF file is interpreted improperly, but
that the file is actually not an ERF at all but a Toshiba one. So to my
understanding, applying your patch would only cause that the contents would
still be (improperly) interpreted as an ERF, only the invalid encapsulation
within the ERF would not lead to file rejection - but the result of the
interpretation would be a heap of nonsense.
What have I missed, what do the ERF and Toshiba formats have in common so that
one can be misrecognized as the other? Is part of parsing algorithm
intentionally common to both?
