"The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 1.8.13. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-1.8.13 advisory.

  - Buffer overflow in the mpeg_read function in wiretap/mpeg.c in the MPEG parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before
    1.8.13 and 1.10.x before 1.10.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of
    service (application crash) via a large record in MPEG data. (CVE-2014-2299)

  - The nfs_name_snoop_add_name function in epan/dissectors/packet-nfs.c in the NFS dissector in Wireshark
    1.8.x before 1.8.13 and 1.10.x before 1.10.6 does not validate a certain length value, which allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted NFS packet.
    (CVE-2014-2281)

  - epan/dissectors/packet-rlc in the RLC dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.13 and 1.10.x before 1.10.6
    uses inconsistent memory-management approaches, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (use-after-free error and application crash) via a crafted UMTS Radio Link Control packet. (CVE-2014-2283)

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