The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma 14.8. Processing a maliciously crafted audio file may lead to memory corruption.

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 14.x prior to 14.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A buffer-overread issue was discovered in StringIO 3.0.1, as distributed in Ruby 3.0.x through 3.0.6 and     3.1.x through 3.1.4. The ungetbyte and ungetc methods on a StringIO can read past the end of a string, and     a subsequent call to StringIO.gets may return the memory value. 3.0.3 is the main fixed version; however,     for Ruby 3.0 users, a fixed version is stringio 3.0.1.1, and for Ruby 3.1 users, a fixed version is     stringio 3.0.1.2. (CVE-2024-27280)

  - The issue was addressed with improved input sanitization. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.5. An     app may be able to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2025-31259)

  - Perl threads have a working directory race condition where file operations may target unintended paths. If     a directory handle is open at thread creation, the process-wide current working directory is temporarily     changed in order to clone that handle for the new thread, which is visible from any third (or more) thread     already running. This may lead to unintended operations such as loading code or accessing files from     unexpected locations, which a local attacker may be able to exploit. The bug was introduced in commit     11a11ecf4bea72b17d250cfb43c897be1341861e and released in Perl version 5.13.6 (CVE-2025-40909)

  - A permissions issue was addressed with additional sandbox restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS     Sequoia 15.6. A sandboxed process may be able to circumvent sandbox restrictions. (CVE-2025-43273)

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.6 and iPadOS 18.6,     watchOS 11.6, macOS Sequoia 15.6, tvOS 18.6, visionOS 2.6. Processing a maliciously crafted audio file may     lead to memory corruption. (CVE-2025-43277)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the operating system's self-reported version number.

According to its banner, the version of Apple TV on the remote device is prior to 18.6. It is therefore affected by multiple vulnerabilities as described in the 124153

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)

  - A logic issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in Safari 18.6, macOS Sequoia 15.6.
    Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to an unexpected Safari crash. (CVE-2025-24188)

  - A permissions issue was addressed with additional restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma     14.7.7, macOS Ventura 13.7.7, macOS Sequoia 15.6. An app may be able to gain root privileges.
    (CVE-2025-31243)

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in Safari 18.6, macOS Sequoia     15.6, iOS 18.6 and iPadOS 18.6, tvOS 18.6, watchOS 11.6, visionOS 2.6. Processing maliciously crafted web     content may lead to memory corruption. (CVE-2025-31273)

  - A permissions issue was addressed with additional restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.6.
    A sandboxed process may be able to launch any installed app. (CVE-2025-31275)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the operating system's self-reported version number.

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 18.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
