"The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 2.2.1. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-2.2.1 advisory.

  - In Wireshark 2.2.0, the NCP dissector could crash, triggered by packet injection or a malformed capture
    file. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/CMakeLists.txt by registering this dissector. (CVE-2016-7958)

  - In Wireshark 2.2.0, the Bluetooth L2CAP dissector could crash, triggered by packet injection or a
    malformed capture file. This was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-btl2cap.c by avoiding use of a seven-
    byte memcmp for potentially shorter strings. (CVE-2016-7957)

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