A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved input validation. This issue affected versions prior to iOS 12.1.1, macOS Mojave 10.14.2, tvOS 12.1.1, watchOS 5.1.2.

The version of Apple Xcode installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 10.2. It is, therefore, affected by a memory corruption issue due to improper input checking. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 12.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities. The highest of which could allow an attacker to perform a remote code execution attack by enticing a user to view malicious web content.

The remote host is running a version of macOS that is 10.14.x prior to 10.14.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to the following components :

 - Airport
 - AMD
 - Carbon Core
 - Disk Images
 - Intel Graphics Driver
 - Kernel
 - WindowServer

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

According to its banner, the version of Apple TV on the remote device is prior to 12.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as described in the HT209342 security advisory:

  - Multiple elevation of privilege vulnerabilities exist due to     improper memory handling. An application can exploit this to gain     elevated privileges. (CVE-2018-4303, CVE-2018-4435)

  - Multiple unspecified command execution vulnerabilities exist that     allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands, sometimes with     kernel privileges. (CVE-2018-4427, CVE-2018-4437, CVE-2018-4438,     CVE-2018-4447, CVE-2018-4461, CVE-2018-4464, CVE-2018-4441,     CVE-2018-4442, CVE-2018-4443)

  - An unspecified denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in     the Kernel that allows an an attacker in a privileged position to     perform a denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-4460)

Additionally, the version of Apple TV is also affected by several additional vulnerabilities including cross-site scripting (XSS) and an information disclosure vulnerability.

Note that only 4th generation devices are affected by these vulnerabilities.

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 12.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities. The highest of which could allow an attacker to perform a remote code execution attack by enticing a user to view malicious web content.
