The version of Wireshark installed on the remote macOS / Mac OS X host is prior to 4.0.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-4.0.3 advisory.
Memory leak in the NFS dissector in Wireshark 4.0.0 to 4.0.2 and 3.6.0 to 3.6.10 and allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file (CVE-2023-0417)
Excessive loops in multiple dissectors in Wireshark 4.0.0 to 4.0.2 and 3.6.0 to 3.6.10 and allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file (CVE-2023-0411)
TIPC dissector crash in Wireshark 4.0.0 to 4.0.2 and 3.6.0 to 3.6.10 and allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file (CVE-2023-0412)
Dissection engine bug in Wireshark 4.0.0 to 4.0.2 and 3.6.0 to 3.6.10 and allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file (CVE-2023-0413)
Crash in the EAP dissector in Wireshark 4.0.0 to 4.0.2 allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file (CVE-2023-0414)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
