The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Mac OS X host is 2.0.x prior to 2.0.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities :
A flaw exists in the QNX6 QNET dissector in the dissect_qnet6_lr() function in packet-qnet6.c due to improper handling of MAC address data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted packet, to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7175)
Multiple flaws exist in the H.225 dissector in packet-h225.c due to improper handling of strings in malformed packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted packet, to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-7176)
An out-of-bounds read error exists in the Catapult DCT2000 dissector in the attach_fp_info() function in packet-catapult-dct2000.c due to a failure to restrict the number of channels. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted packet, to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-7177)
A NULL pointer dereference flaw exists in the UMTS FP dissector in packet-umts_fp.c due to a failure to ensure that memory is allocated for certain data structures. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted packet, to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7178)
A stack-based buffer overflow condition exists in the Catapult DCT2000 dissector in the parse_outhdr_string() function in packet-catapult-dct2000.c due to improper validation of specially crafted packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted packet, to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7179)
A flaw exists in the IPMI Trace dissector in the dissect_ipmi_trace() function in packet-ipmi-trace.c due to a failure to properly consider whether a string is constant. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted packet, to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-7180)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
