The version of Safari installed on the remote host reportedly is affected by several issues :

  - An out-of-bounds memory read while handling BMP and GIF     images may lead to information disclosure     (CVE-2008-1573).

  - Safari will automatically launch executable files     downloaded from a site if that site is in an IE7 zone     with 'Launching applications and unsafe files' set to     'Enable' or an IE6 'Local intranet ' / ' Trusted sites'     zone (CVE-2008-2306).

  - There is a memory corruption issue in WebKit's     handling of JavaScript arrays that could be leveraged     to crash the application or execute arbitrary code     if visiting a malicious site (CVE-2008-2307).

  - When handling an object with an unrecognized content     type, Safari does not prompt the user before     downloading the object (aka, the 'carpet-bombing'     issue). If the download location is the Windows     Desktop (the default), this could lead to arbitrary     code execution (CVE-2008-2540).

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X 10.5.x that is prior to 10.5.3. 

Mac OS X 10.5.3 contains security fixes for a number of programs.

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X 10.4 that does not have the security update 2008-003 applied. 

This update contains security fixes for a number of programs.
