>Description:
tcpflow sometimes adds garbage to the end of the captured streams. This is because it does not correctly handle packets which have a large dgm-length (while the actual data sent is not that size). I have tried to contact the author of the software and the software's freebsd-ports maintainer and have received no response.
>How-To-Repeat:
Get tcpflow to process data comm. b/w a Windows box and some other computer. tcpflow will add junk to the end of the recorded tcp stream file.
>Fix:
it's a simple one-line patch, and is available on request.
