The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 3.6.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-3.6.9 advisory.
The OPUS dissector could crash. It may be possible to make Wireshark crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. (wireshark-bug-18378)
The USB-HID dissector could crash on Windows. It may be possible to make Wireshark crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. (wireshark- bug-18384)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
