Wireshark fails to decrypt the first message of each encrypted exchange,
reporting it as a Malformed Packet.
This seems to be caused by wrong CBC initialization vectors.
The error is triggered by a phase 1 where all messages are unencrypted,
which is allowed according to RFC 2409.
In the error situation, Wireshark generates IVs as follows:
During phase 1, decrypt_payload() is never called, since no message
has the Encryption flag set.
For the first post-phase1 exchange with encrypted messages (Informational,
frame #4):
iv2 = hash(g^xi | g^xr) /* wrong */
iv2 = last_cbc(ciphertext)
...
When Wireshark handles the second post-phase1 exchange (Config Mode, frame #5),
the last CBC block of frame #4 is wrongly stored as if it was the latest IV of
phase 1 and then used for generating further IVs:
iv1 = iv2
iv[n] = hash(iv1, message_id[n])
However, in the absence of encryption in phase 1, the IVs for
all post-phase1 exchanges should be generated as follows:
iv1 = hash(g^xi | g^xr)
/* no ciphertext blocks to update iv1, it keeps this value */
iv[n] = hash(iv1 | message_id[n])
