What is it with iOS and string parsing bugs? First it was iMessage content then it was SSIDs now it's LAN device names? Oof

This is not a parsing bug, it is just some component crashing because of a name that is too long. Not very nice, but considering the source of the name any exploitation scenario is very unlikely and this is incomparable to bugs that allow code execution.
