At least in version 2.3 of WinPCap, we saw this issue when we had a
filter string longer than about 380 bytes. There is no workaround. The
code in the wpcap library/dll would need to be changed to accomodate
larger strings.

Subject: [WinPcap-users] Winpcap 3.0 Beta crashes with a long complex
filter string


Hi,

I am attaching a file containing a long complex filter
string that causes winpcap to crash when calling
pcap_compile(). It looks like a stack overflow problem
and occurs inside count_blocks(). The length of the
filter is about 44000.
Is there any quick fix to the problem? Do you know if
there is a limit on the length of the filter?

Thanks for your help,
-Hai
