The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 15.x prior to 15.7.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in watchOS     26.1, iOS 18.7.2 and iPadOS 18.7.2, macOS Tahoe 26.1, visionOS 26.1, tvOS 26.1, macOS Sonoma 14.8.2, macOS     Sequoia 15.7.2, iOS 26.1 and iPadOS 26.1. A malicious application may be able to cause unexpected system     termination or write kernel memory. (CVE-2025-43520)

  - REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.6 has a DoS vulnerability when it parses an XML     that has many deep elements that have same local name attributes. If you need to parse untrusted XMLs with     tree parser API like REXML::Document.new, you may be impacted to this vulnerability. If you use other     parser APIs such as stream parser API and SAX2 parser API, this vulnerability is not affected. The REXML     gem 3.3.6 or later include the patch to fix the vulnerability. (CVE-2024-43398)

  - REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.9 has a ReDoS vulnerability when it parses an     XML that has many digits between &# and x...; in a hex numeric character reference (&#x...;). This does     not happen with Ruby 3.2 or later. Ruby 3.1 is the only affected maintained Ruby. The REXML gem 3.3.9 or     later include the patch to fix the vulnerability. (CVE-2024-49761)

  - A permissions issue was addressed with improved validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Ventura 13.7.5,     iPadOS 17.7.6, macOS Sequoia 15.4, macOS Sonoma 14.7.5. A shortcut may be able to access files that are     normally inaccessible to the Shortcuts app. (CVE-2025-30465)

  - A race condition was addressed with improved state handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Tahoe 26, macOS     Sequoia 15.7.2. An app may be able to access sensitive user data. (CVE-2025-43292)

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 26.x prior to 26.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A vulnerability has been identified in the libarchive library. This flaw can be triggered when file     streams are piped into bsdtar, potentially allowing for reading past the end of the file. This out-of-     bounds read can lead to unintended consequences, including unpredictable program behavior, memory     corruption, or a denial-of-service condition. (CVE-2025-5918)

  - libcurl's ASN1 parser code has the `GTime2str()` function, used for parsing an ASN.1 Generalized Time     field. If given an syntactically incorrect field, the parser might end up using -1 for the length of the
    *time fraction*, leading to a `strlen()` getting performed on a pointer to a heap buffer area that is not     (purposely) null terminated. This flaw most likely leads to a crash, but can also lead to heap contents     getting returned to the application when     [CURLINFO_CERTINFO](https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLINFO_CERTINFO.html) is used. (CVE-2024-7264)

  - Incorrect security UI in Downloads in Google Chrome prior to 129.0.6668.58 allowed a remote attacker who     convinced a user to engage in specific UI gestures to perform UI spoofing via a crafted HTML page.
    (Chromium security severity: Medium) (CVE-2024-8906)

  - Out of bounds memory access in ANGLE in Google Chrome on Mac prior to 143.0.7499.110 allowed a remote     attacker to perform out of bounds memory access via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity:
    High) (CVE-2025-14174)

  - The issue was addressed with improved handling of caches. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.7.2,     macOS Sonoma 14.8.2. An attacker with physical access may be able to view deleted notes. (CVE-2025-43410)

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 14.8.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - The issue was addressed with improved input validation. This issue is fixed in tvOS 26, watchOS 26, iOS 26     and iPadOS 26, macOS Sonoma 14.8.2, visionOS 26. Processing a maliciously crafted media file may lead to     unexpected app termination or corrupt process memory. (CVE-2025-43372)

  - A logging issue was addressed with improved data redaction. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.4 and iPadOS     18.4, visionOS 2.4, macOS Sequoia 15.4. An app may be able to access sensitive user data. (CVE-2025-31199)
