The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 4.2.4. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the wireshark-4.2.4 advisory.

  • T.38 dissector crash in Wireshark 4.2.0 to 4.0.3 and 4.0.0 to 4.0.13 allows denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file (CVE-2024-2955)

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