Information

The macOS system must be a version supported by the vendor.

GROUP ID: V-278915
RULE ID: SV-278915r1149198

Unsupported software and systems should not be used because fixes to newly identified bugs will not be implemented by the vendor. The lack of support can result in potential vulnerabilities.

Software and systems at unsupported servicing levels or releases will not receive security updates for new vulnerabilities, which leaves them subject to exploitation.

When maintenance updates and patches are no longer available, software is no longer considered supported and should be upgraded or decommissioned.

NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Upgrade to a supported version of the operating system.
