Synopsis

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 16.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities including:

 - Missing bounds checks in the Cellular component. A remote attack may be able to cause arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2023-32419)

 - A use after free vulnerability in the WebKit component. Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2023-32373)

 - A Buffer overflow vulnerability in the ImageIO component. Processing an image can lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2023-32384)

 - A race condition in the Kernel component which can result in an app gaining root privileges.
 (CVE-2023-32413)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Apple iOS version 16.5 or later
