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:

  - There exists a vulnerability in SQLite versions before 3.50.2 where the number of aggregate terms could     exceed the number of columns available. This could lead to a memory corruption issue. We recommend     upgrading to version 3.50.2 or above. (CVE-2025-6965)

  - 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 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:

  - This issue was addressed with additional entitlement checks. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.7,     macOS Sonoma 14.8, macOS Tahoe 26. An app may be able to access sensitive user data. (CVE-2025-43308)

  - 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)

  - A logic issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.7, macOS Sonoma     14.8, macOS Tahoe 26. An app may be able to access sensitive user data. (CVE-2025-24197)

  - An authorization issue was addressed with improved state management. This issue is fixed in iOS 26 and     iPadOS 26, macOS Sequoia 15.7, macOS Sonoma 14.8, macOS Tahoe 26, tvOS 26, watchOS 26. An app may be able     to access sensitive user data. (CVE-2025-31255)

  - A privacy issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.5, macOS     Sequoia 15.7, macOS Sonoma 14.8, macOS Tahoe 26. An app may be able to capture a screenshot of an app     entering or exiting full screen mode. (CVE-2025-31259)
