The Kafka dissector could consume excessive amounts of memory. It may be possible to make Wireshark consume excessive CPU resources by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. Affected versions: 4.0.0 to 4.0.1, 3.6.0 to 3.6.9 Fixed versions: 4.0.2, 3.6.10 References: https://www.wireshark.org/security/wnpa-sec-2022-10
