"The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 1.10.4. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-1.10.4 advisory.

  - wiretap/libpcap.c in the libpcap file parser in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.4 allows remote attackers to
    execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a
    crafted packet-trace file that includes a large packet. (CVE-2014-4174)

  - The dissect_sip_common function in epan/dissectors/packet-sip.c in the SIP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x
    before 1.8.12 and 1.10.x before 1.10.4 does not check for empty lines, which allows remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-7112)

  - epan/dissectors/packet-bssgp.c in the BSSGP dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.4 incorrectly relies
    on a global variable, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a
    crafted packet. (CVE-2013-7113)

  - Multiple buffer overflows in the create_ntlmssp_v2_key function in epan/dissectors/packet-ntlmssp.c in the
    NTLMSSP v2 dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.12 and 1.10.x before 1.10.4 allow remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long domain name in a packet. (CVE-2013-7114)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
