The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 2.6.x prior to 2.6.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities in the following protocol dissectors:
6LoWPAN
P_MUL
RTSE
ISAKMP
An attacker could cause Wireshark to crash by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire, or by convincing a user to read a malformed packet trace file.
