Wireshark 3.0.0 Release Notes
What’s New
Many user interface improvements have been made. See the “New and
Updated Features” section below for more details.
Support for a number of legacy features and libraries has been
removed. See the “Removed Features and Support” section below for more
details.
Bug Fixes
The following bugs have been fixed:
• Data following a TCP ZeroWindowProbe is marked as retransmission
and not passed to subdissectors (Bug 15427[1])
• Lua Error on startup: init.lua: dofile has been disabled due to
running Wireshark as superuser (Bug 15489[2]).
Text and Image columns were handled incorrectly for TDS 7.0 and 7.1.
(Bug 3098[3])
Dumpcap might not quit if Wireshark or TShark crashes. (Bug 1419[4])
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 3.0.0rc1:
• The IP map feature (the “Map” button in the “Endpoints” dialog)
has been added back in a modernized form (Bug 14693[5]).
• The macOS package now ships with Qt 5.12.1. Previously it shipped
with Qt 5.9.7.
• The macOS package requires version 10.12 or later. If you’re
running an older version of macOS, please use Wireshark 2.6.
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 2.9.0:
• Wireshark now supports the Swedish and Ukrainian languages.
• Initial support for using PKCS #11 tokens for RSA decryption in
TLS. This can be configured at Preferences, RSA Keys.
• The build system now produces reproducible builds (Bug 15163[6]).
• The Windows installers now ship with Qt 5.12.1. Previously they
shipped with Qt 5.12.0.
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
since version 2.6.0:
• The Windows .exe installers now ship with Npcap[7] instead of
WinPcap. Besides being actively maintained (by the nmap project),
Npcap brings support for loopback capture and 802.11 WiFi monitor
mode capture (if supported by the NIC driver).
• Conversation timestamps are supported for UDP/UDP-Lite protocols
• TShark now supports the -G elastic-mapping option which generates
an ElasticSearch mapping file.
• The “Capture Information” dialog has been added back (Bug
12004[8]).
• The Ethernet and IEEE 802.11 dissectors no longer validate the
frame check sequence (checksum) by default.
• The TCP dissector gained a new “Reassemble out-of-order segments”
preference to fix dissection and decryption issues in case TCP
segments are received out-of-order. See the User’s Guide, chapter
TCP Reassembly for details.
• Decryption support for the new WireGuard dissector (Bug 15011[9],
requires Libgcrypt 1.8).
• The BOOTP dissector has been renamed to DHCP. With the exception
of “bootp.dhcp”, the old “bootp.*” display filter fields are
still supported but may be removed in a future release.
• The SSL dissector has been renamed to TLS. As with BOOTP the old
“ssl.*” display filter fields are supported but may be removed in
a future release.
• Coloring rules, IO graphs, Filter Buttons and protocol preference
tables can now be copied from other profiles using a button in
the corresponding configuration dialogs.
• APT-X has been renamed to aptX.
• When importing from hex dump, it’s now possible to add an
ExportPDU header with a payload name. This calls the specific
dissector directly without lower protocols.
• The sshdump and ciscodump extcap interfaces can now use a proxy
for the SSH connection.
• Dumpcap now supports the -a packets:NUM and -b packets:NUM
options.
• Wireshark now includes a “No Reassembly” configuration profile.
• Wireshark now supports the Russian language.
• The build system now supports AppImage packages.
• The Windows installers now ship with Qt 5.12.0. Previously they
shipped with Qt 5.9.7.
• Support for DTLS and TLS decryption using pcapng files that embed
a Decryption Secrets Block (DSB) containing a TLS Key Log (Bug
15252[10]).
• The editcap utility gained a new --inject-secrets option to
inject an existing TLS Key Log file into a pcapng file.
• A new dfilter function string() has been added. It allows the
conversion of non-string fields to strings so string functions
(as contains and matches) can be used on them.
• The Bash test suite has been replaced by one based on Python
unittest/pytest.
• The custom window title can now show file path of the capture
file and it has a conditional separator.
Removed Features and Support
• The legacy (GTK+) user interface has been removed and is no
longer supported.
• The portaudio library is no longer needed due to the removal of
GTK+.
• Wireshark requires Qt 5.2 or later. Qt 4 is no longer supported.
• Wireshark requires GLib 2.32 or later.
• Wireshark requires GnuTLS 3.2 or later as optional dependency.
• Building Wireshark requires Python 3.4 or newer, Python 2.7 is
unsupported.
• Building Wireshark requires CMake. Autotools is no longer
supported.
• TShark’s -z compare option was removed.
• Building with Cygwin is no longer supported on Windows.

DisplayPort AUX channel data from linux kernel drivers.
sdjournal, an extcap that captures systemd journal entries.
Major API Changes
• Lua: the various logging functions (debug, info, message, warn
and critical) have been removed. Use the print function instead
for debugging purposes.
• Lua: on Windows, file-related functions such as dofile now assume
UTF-8 paths instead of the local code page. This is consistent
with Linux and macOS and improves compatibility on non-English
systems. (Bug 15118[11])
