There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4, the ZigBee ZCL dissector could crash. This was addressed in
    epan/dissectors/packet-zbee-zcl-lighting.c by preventing a divide-by-zero error. (CVE-2018-19628)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the MMSE dissector could go into an infinite loop. This
    was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-mmse.c by preventing length overflows. (CVE-2018-19622)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the LBMPDM dissector could crash. In addition, a remote
    attacker could write arbitrary data to any memory locations before the packet-scoped memory. This was
    addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-lbmpdm.c by disallowing certain negative values. (CVE-2018-19623)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the PVFS dissector could crash. This was addressed in
    epan/dissectors/packet-pvfs2.c by preventing a NULL pointer dereference. (CVE-2018-19624)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the dissection engine could crash. This was addressed in
    epan/tvbuff_composite.c by preventing a heap-based buffer over-read. (CVE-2018-19625)

The version of Wireshark installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 2.6.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the wireshark-2.6.5 advisory.

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4, the ZigBee ZCL dissector could crash. This was addressed in     epan/dissectors/packet-zbee-zcl-lighting.c by preventing a divide-by-zero error. (CVE-2018-19628)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the dissection engine could crash. This was addressed in     epan/tvbuff_composite.c by preventing a heap-based buffer over-read. (CVE-2018-19625)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the DCOM dissector could crash. This was addressed in     epan/dissectors/packet-dcom.c by adding '\0' termination. (CVE-2018-19626)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the LBMPDM dissector could crash. In addition, a remote     attacker could write arbitrary data to any memory locations before the packet-scoped memory. This was     addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-lbmpdm.c by disallowing certain negative values. (CVE-2018-19623)

  - In Wireshark 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 and 2.4.0 to 2.4.10, the MMSE dissector could go into an infinite loop. This     was addressed in epan/dissectors/packet-mmse.c by preventing length overflows. (CVE-2018-19622)

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