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 :
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.
