Windows Wireshark releases stay reasonably current with GTK/Glib versions.

 

So:

 

1. Please provide the details as to the version of Wireshark and the

various libraries you are using (Wireshark ! Help ! About).

 

2. Can you provide a bit more detail as to the specific Secunia Advisory

ID being reported.

 

A quick look at the Secunia database didn't show any advisories for libgdk.
