The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 4.2.7. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the wireshark-4.2.7 advisory.

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