An out-of-bounds access issue was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.6, macOS Sonoma 14.7.7, macOS Ventura 13.7.7. Processing a maliciously crafted file may lead to unexpected app termination.

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 15.x prior to 15.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A flaw was found in the libxslt library. The same memory field, psvi, is used for both stylesheet and     input data, which can lead to type confusion during XML transformations. This vulnerability allows an     attacker to crash the application or corrupt memory. In some cases, it may lead to denial of service or     unexpected behavior. (CVE-2025-7424)

  - Insufficient validation of untrusted input in ANGLE and GPU in Google Chrome prior to 138.0.7204.157     allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium     security severity: High) (CVE-2025-6558)

  - A flaw was found in libxslt where the attribute type, atype, flags are modified in a way that corrupts     internal memory management. When XSLT functions, such as the key() process, result in tree fragments, this     corruption prevents the proper cleanup of ID attributes. As a result, the system may access freed memory,     causing crashes or enabling attackers to trigger heap corruption. (CVE-2025-7425)

  - This issue was addressed by adding an additional prompt for user consent.

  - An integer overflow was addressed with improved input validation. (CVE-2025-31243, CVE-2025-43187,     CVE-2025-43191, CVE-2025-43192, CVE-2025-43194, CVE-2025-43196, CVE-2025-43197, CVE-2025-43206,     CVE-2025-43210, CVE-2025-43220, CVE-2025-43253)
