The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - WebKit in Apple iOS before 9 allows remote attackers to trigger a dialing action via a crafted (1) tel://,     (2) facetime://, or (3) facetime-audio:// URL. (CVE-2015-5820)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X that is 10.6.8 or later but prior to 10.11. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the following components :
