The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 1.4.15. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-1.4.15 advisory.

  • The dissect_pft function in epan/dissectors/packet-dcp-etsi.c in the DCP ETSI dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a zero-length message. (CVE-2012-4285)

  • Integer overflow in the dissect_xtp_ecntl function in epan/dissectors/packet-xtp.c in the XTP dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop or application crash) via a large value for a span length. (CVE-2012-4288)

  • epan/dissectors/packet-afp.c in the AFP dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption) via a large number of ACL entries. (CVE-2012-4289)

  • Buffer overflow in epan/dissectors/packet-rtps2.c in the RTPS2 dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4296)

  • The CIP dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4291)

  • The dissect_stun_message function in epan/dissectors/packet-stun.c in the STUN dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 does not properly interact with key- destruction behavior in a certain tree library, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4292)

  • plugins/ethercat/packet-ecatmb.c in the EtherCAT Mailbox dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 does not properly handle certain integer fields, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application exit) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2012-4293)

  • The CTDB dissector in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.15, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.8.x before 1.8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption) via a malformed packet.
    (CVE-2012-4290)

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