The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 14.x prior to 14.7.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A logic issue was addressed with improved restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma 14.7.2, macOS     Sequoia 15.2, macOS Ventura 13.7.2. An attacker may gain access to protected parts of the file system.
    (CVE-2024-54557)

  - A path handling issue was addressed with improved validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.2,     macOS Ventura 13.7.2, macOS Sonoma 14.7.2. An app may be able to break out of its sandbox.
    (CVE-2024-54498)

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in iPadOS 17.7.3, macOS Ventura     13.7.2, iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1, macOS Sonoma 14.7.2. Processing a malicious crafted file may lead to a     denial-of-service. (CVE-2024-44201)

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.2, macOS     Sonoma 14.7.2. Parsing a maliciously crafted video file may lead to unexpected system termination.
    (CVE-2024-44220)

  - A permissions issue was addressed with additional restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.2,     macOS Ventura 13.7.2, macOS Sonoma 14.7.2. A malicious app may be able to gain root privileges.
    (CVE-2024-44224)

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

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 15.x prior to 15.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in watchOS 11.2, visionOS 2.2,     tvOS 18.2, macOS Sequoia 15.2, Safari 18.2, iOS 18.2 and iPadOS 18.2. Processing maliciously crafted web     content may lead to memory corruption. (CVE-2024-54534)

  - Buffer overflow in the DBD::mysql module before 4.037 for Perl allows context-dependent attackers to cause     a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to an error message. (CVE-2016-1246)

  - CPAN.pm before 2.35 does not verify TLS certificates when downloading distributions over HTTPS.
    (CVE-2023-31484)

  - HTTP::Tiny before 0.083, a Perl core module since 5.13.9 and available standalone on CPAN, has an insecure     default TLS configuration where users must opt in to verify certificates. (CVE-2023-31486)

  - A logic issue was addressed with improved state management. This issue is fixed in macOS Big Sur 11.7.7,     macOS Monterey 12.6.6, macOS Ventura 13.4. An app may be able to modify protected parts of the file     system. (CVE-2023-32395)
