Wireshark developers released the little update to fix several issues. There are no new features, as it is just a maintenance release.

According to the changelog, the new version of Wireshark fixes the seven vulnerabilities found in the LBMR, WebSocket, WCP, X11, and IEEE 802.11 dissectors, as well as the Android file analyzer and packet reassembly code.

Many errors were corrected, such as a crash that occurred when disabling the "Update list of packets in real time" option.
