Description hirschmatthew9 2023-08-30 19:22:10 UTC
Wireshark will crash a second or so after clicking the "OK" button in the "Managed Interfaces" window, which can be accessed via clicking on "Capture > Options" on the main toolbar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on "Capture" then "Options" within the main toolbar on the top.
2. Click on the "Managed Interfaces" button on the bottom-right corner of the window that pops up.
3. Not sure if you have to uncheck the check mark box under the "Show" column for some of the interfaces shown, to successfully reproduce this. However, that's what I did the first few times I tried to reproduce this.
4. Click on the "OK" button in the bottom-right corner of that window.
Actual Results:  
Crashes around a second after clicking the "OK" button. Though, after reopening Wireshark, the changes seem to have been saved.

Expected Results:  
Should not crash.

FYI, this issue exists upstream and was fixed. However, the issue author said they couldn't reproduce it in the version that I happen to be using (v4.0.7). Link to the relevant issue: https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/issues/19287

Comment 4 Michal Ruprich 2023-08-31 08:11:25 UTC
Thanks for the report, it was actually easily reproducible on F37 with the 4.0.7 version. I am adding this to the 4.0.8 rebase that I have prepared.
