Description

Currently, in case there was a mis-detection of protocol or something led to incomplete data error in a protocol parser, the cleanup is not done properly.
Victor says "we should have logic that "closes" all txs (marks them as done), or handle this in the lower layers"
This came up when DCE/RPC over UDP packet was misdetected as Wireguard protocol and took too much of processing power.
