The host is missing a security update according to Wireshark Advisory. The update is required to fix a denial-of-service vulnerability. A flaw is present in the application, which fails to properly handle an issue in FBZERO dissector. Successful exploitation allows attackers to crash the FBZERO protocol dissector by making wireshark consume excessive CPU resources by injecting a malformed packet onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file.
