The installed version of Wireshark is version 1.12.x prior to 1.12.1.
It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  • Errors exist in the following dissectors that can cause the application to crash :

    • CUPS (CVE-2014-6425)
    • HIP (CVE-2014-6426)
    • MEGACO (CVE-2014-6423)
    • Netflow (CVE-2014-6424)
    • RTSP (CVE-2014-6427)
    • SES (CVE-2014-6428)
  • Unspecified errors exist related to file parsing that can cause the parser to crash. (CVE-2014-6429, CVE-2014-6430, CVE-2014-6431, CVE-2014-6432)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
