The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 119.0.6045.159. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2023_11_stable-channel-update-for-desktop_14 advisory.

  • Use after free in Garbage Collection in Google Chrome prior to 119.0.6045.159 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-5997)

  • Use after free in Navigation in Google Chrome prior to 119.0.6045.159 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-6112)

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