high Nessus Plugin ID 372125

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a macOS update that fixes multiple vulnerabilities

Description

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 15.x prior to 15.8.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- A logging issue was addressed with improved data redaction. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.3 and iPadOS 26.3, macOS Tahoe 26.3, tvOS 26.3, watchOS 26.3. A user may be able to view sensitive user information.
(CVE-2026-20649)

- A privacy issue was addressed by moving sensitive data to a protected location. This issue is fixed in macOS Tahoe 26.3. A malicious app may be able to access notifications from other iCloud devices.
(CVE-2026-20648)

- This issue was addressed with improved permissions checking. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.7.7 and iPadOS 18.7.7, iOS 26.4 and iPadOS 26.4, macOS Sequoia 15.7.5, macOS Sonoma 14.8.5, macOS Tahoe 26.4, visionOS 26.4, watchOS 26.4. A local attacker may gain access to user's Keychain items. (CVE-2026-28864)

- An out-of-bounds read was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.5 and iPadOS 26.5, macOS Tahoe 26.5, tvOS 26.5, visionOS 26.5, watchOS 26.5. An app may be able to cause a denial-of-service. (CVE-2026-28991)

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

Solution

Upgrade to macOS 15.8.2 or later.
