Wireshark has had vulnerability problems for so long I've stopped using it for grabbing pcaps. Anymore, I use tcpdump or windump to capture to a file and then examine the file with Wireshark. At least then it's not running as root.

I too use tcpdump for captures, usually in raw format so I loose nothing, then analyze it from the captured file, either with wireshark or other tools, especially one liner scripts hacked for the moment. Besides, since tcpdump is lower overhead, it is faster, and less likely to drop packets on a busy network.
