"The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is 
2.2.x prior to 2.2.10. It is, therefore, affected by multiple denial 
of service vulnerabilities in the DMP, BT ATT and MBIM dissectors. An 
unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this by injecting a 
malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read 
a malformed packet trace file.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead
relied only on the application's self-reported version number.");
