- Mitigation guidance
- Disable the RF4CE dissector in Wireshark or tshark to prevent processing of malformed packets: 1. Graphical user interface: Navigate to Analyze -> Enabled Protocols, search for "RF4CE", uncheck the checkbox, and click OK. 2. Command-line interface (tshark): Invoke tshark with the protocol disabled: ``` tshark --disable-protocol rf4ce -r <capture_file> ``` 3. Configuration file: Add the protocol identifier to the disabled protocols configuration file: ``` echo "rf4ce" >> ~/.config/wireshark/disabled_protos ``` Caveats: Disabling the RF4CE dissector prevents Wireshark from decoding RF4CE frames, displaying them only as raw payload data. Active Wireshark processes must be restarted for configuration file changes to take effect. As a general operational security practice, do not run Wireshark or tshark with elevated (root) privileges when inspecting untrusted capture files.
