In Wireshark 3.2.0 to 3.2.1, the WireGuard dissector could crash. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-wireguard.c by handling the situation where a certain data structure intentionally has a NULL value.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
