"The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 1.8.6. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-1.8.6 advisory.
- The DTLS dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6 does not validate the fragment
offset before invoking the reassembly state machine, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (application crash) via a large offset value that triggers write access to an invalid memory
location. (CVE-2013-2488)
- epan/dissectors/packet-reload.c in the REsource LOcation And Discovery (aka RELOAD) dissector in Wireshark
1.8.x before 1.8.6 uses incorrect integer data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (infinite loop) via crafted integer values in a packet, related to the (1) dissect_icecandidates,
(2) dissect_kinddata, (3) dissect_nodeid_list, (4) dissect_storeans, (5) dissect_storereq, (6)
dissect_storeddataspecifier, (7) dissect_fetchreq, (8) dissect_findans, (9) dissect_diagnosticinfo, (10)
dissect_diagnosticresponse, (11) dissect_reload_messagecontents, and (12) dissect_reload_message
functions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-2486. (CVE-2013-2487)
- The TCP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(application crash) via a malformed packet. (CVE-2013-2475)
- The dissect_hartip function in epan/dissectors/packet-hartip.c in the HART/IP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x
before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a packet with a
header that is too short. (CVE-2013-2476)
- The CSN.1 dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 does not properly manage function pointers, which
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet.
(CVE-2013-2477)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
