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

The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-2967 advisory.

    Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Wireshark, a network traffic analyzer. An     attacker could cause a denial of service (infinite loop or application crash) via packet injection or a     crafted capture file. Improper URL handling in Wireshark could also allow remote code execution. A double-     click will no longer automatically open the URL in pcap(ng) files and instead copy it to the clipboard     where it can be inspected and pasted to the browser's address bar. For Debian 9 stretch, these problems     have been fixed in version 2.6.20-0+deb9u3. We recommend that you upgrade your wireshark packages. For the     detailed security status of wireshark please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-     tracker.debian.org/tracker/wireshark Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to     apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at:
    https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
