'Name' => 'Mac OS X APFS Encrypted Volume Password Disclosure',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits a flaw in OSX 10.13 through 10.13.3
that discloses the passwords of encrypted APFS volumes.
In OSX a normal user can use the 'log' command to view the system
logs. In OSX 10.13 to 10.13.2 when a user creates an encrypted APFS
volume the password is visible in plaintext within these logs.
