There exist a stack exhaustion vulnerability in libwireshark.dll, which is
caused by deep recursive call in proto_tree_traverse_post_order function.

gboolean proto_tree_traverse_post_order(proto_tree *tree,
proto_tree_traverse_func func, gpointer data)
{
    proto_node *pnode = tree;
    proto_node *child;
    proto_node *current;
    child = pnode->first_child;

    while (child != NULL) {

        /*
        * The routine we call might modify the child, e.g. by
        * freeing it, so we get the child's successor before
        * calling that routine.
        */

        current = child;
        child   = current->next;
        if (proto_tree_traverse_post_order((proto_tree *)current, func, data))
            return TRUE;
    }

    if (func(pnode, data))
        return TRUE;

    return FALSE;
}

When open the crafted poc file, and click the final http 200 packet the
vulnerability will be trigered. The application will crash.

I have tested this problem in 2.0.1 and 2.0.2.
But the legency version seems not be affected.
