The fts3_tokenizer function in SQLite, as used in Apple iOS before 8.4 and OS X before 10.10.4, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a SQL command that triggers an API call with a crafted pointer value in the second argument.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - The fts3_tokenizer function in SQLite, as used in Apple iOS before 8.4 and OS X before 10.10.4, allows     remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a SQL     command that triggers an API call with a crafted pointer value in the second argument. (CVE-2015-7036)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201612-21 (SQLite: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in SQLite. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process, or cause a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X 10.10.x that is prior to 10.10.4. It is, therefore, affected multiple vulnerabilities in the following components :

  - Admin Framework
  - afpserver
  - apache
  - AppleFSCompression
  - AppleGraphicsControl
  - AppleThunderboltEDMService
  - ATS
  - Bluetooth
  - Certificate Trust Policy

  - ntfs
  - ntp
  - OpenSSL
  - QuickTime
  - Security
  - Spotlight
  - SQLite
  - System Stats
  - TrueTypeScaler
  - zip

Note that successful exploitation of the most serious issues can result in arbitrary code execution.
