Values of mdns response have a false representation #8

Closed deimi closed 4 years ago

deimi commented 4 years ago

The mdns response values for sb, xp, sq and bb are false encoded. Instead of a string representation of hex values, they are transmitted as raw byte values.

I'm using Kibra v2.1.0

See attached wireshark screenshot and trace false_mdsn_encoding.pcapng.zip

Hi @deimi, Thread Specification defines some fields, within mDNS response, whose value is binary-encoded, such as those you correctly pointed out.

Oh sorry, I didn't know this. Should have read the specification :sweat_smile: In this case the other side (ot-commissioner) I'm using has a bug.
