Product: Wireshark

Reporter: piotr.smolinski...@gmail.com

The current Kafka Apache dissector in Wireshark is capable to successfully
process
Kafka wire protocol up to version 0.10. The version 0.11 from June 2017
introduced
new message format that made the dissector unusable for any 0.11 and newer
Kafka
deployments.
The current version of Apache Kafka is 2.3. It brings a lot of new features and
improvements. Wireshark is a perfect tool to analyse the timing of frames, but
with lack of support for the newer Kafka versions it is difficult to reason
about
the messages.
The Kafka dissector needs several changes:
* upgrade of the protocol frames to support newer versions of the product
* new message encoding (since 0.11)
* zstd compressed messages handling (since 2.1)
* TLS support
