The version of Wireshark installed on the remote MacOS/MacOSX host is 2.2.x prior to 2.2.11 or 2.4.x prior to 2.4.3. It is, therefore, affected by denial of service vulnerabilities in the IWARP_MPA, NetBIOS, and CIP Safety dissectors. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
