How should I handle this FIN Flood attack that my SonicWall is reporting

I'm trying to understand what might be happening with this log.  Are machines 192.168.1.152 and 192.168.1.253 compromised or is there something else going on?  192.168.1.253 is our Exchange 2010 Server...we are experiencing disconnects from the Outlook users on the network that are only resolved if they reboot.  I've already run a full scan with antivirus and Malwarebytes on the server - what else should be done to make sure there is nothing rogue on the machine?  Is the SonicWall just alerting us or is it actually blocking the "attack"?  

Machine 192.168.1.152 is a MacBook...we have that machine turned off for now.

Here is the log:

It was likey a miscommunication between one laptop and the Exchange 2010 server.  It seems to be resolved now.
The solution failed to address some of the initial questions but was an adequate attempt.
