"The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 1.4.9. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-1.4.9 advisory.

  - Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via
    a malformed capture file that leads to an invalid root tvbuff, related to a buffer exception handling
    vulnerability. (CVE-2011-3483)

  - Untrusted search path vulnerability in Wireshark 1.4.x before 1.4.9 and 1.6.x before 1.6.2 allows local
    users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse Lua script in an unspecified directory. (CVE-2011-3360)

  - The proto_tree_add_item function in Wireshark 1.6.0 through 1.6.1 and 1.4.0 through 1.4.8, when the IKEv1
    protocol dissector is used, allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite
    loop) via vectors involving a malformed IKE packet and many items in a tree. (CVE-2011-3266)

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