  script_set_attribute(attribute:"synopsis", value:
"The remote host is missing a macOS update that fixes multiple vulnerabilities");
  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 12.x prior to 12.7.6. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A segment fault (SEGV) flaw was found in libtiff that could be triggered by passing a crafted tiff file to
    the TIFFReadRGBATileExt() API. This flaw allows a remote attacker to cause a heap-buffer overflow, leading
    to a denial of service. (CVE-2023-52356)

  - An out-of-memory flaw was found in libtiff. Passing a crafted tiff file to TIFFOpen() API may allow a
    remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a craft input with size smaller than 379 KB.
    (CVE-2023-6277)

  - When a protocol selection parameter option disables all protocols without adding any then the default set
    of protocols would remain in the allowed set due to an error in the logic for removing protocols. The
    below command would perform a request to curl.se with a plaintext protocol which has been explicitly
    disabled. curl --proto -all,-http http://curl.se The flaw is only present if the set of selected protocols
    disables the entire set of available protocols, in itself a command with no practical use and therefore
    unlikely to be encountered in real situations. The curl security team has thus assessed this to be low
    severity bug. (CVE-2024-2004)

  - A logic issue was addressed with improved state management. This issue is fixed in macOS Monterey 12.7.6,
    macOS Sonoma 14.4, macOS Ventura 13.6.8. An attacker may be able to read information belonging to another
    user. (CVE-2024-23261)

  - A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved validation. This issue is fixed in iOS 17.4 and
    iPadOS 17.4. An attacker with arbitrary kernel read and write capability may be able to bypass kernel
    memory protections. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been exploited. (CVE-2024-23296)

  - libcurl skips the certificate verification for a QUIC connection under certain conditions, when built to
    use wolfSSL. If told to use an unknown/bad cipher or curve, the error path accidentally skips the
    verification and returns OK, thus ignoring any certificate problems. (CVE-2024-2379)

  - When an application tells libcurl it wants to allow HTTP/2 server push, and the amount of received headers
    for the push surpasses the maximum allowed limit (1000), libcurl aborts the server push. When aborting,
    libcurl inadvertently does not free all the previously allocated headers and instead leaks the memory.
    Further, this error condition fails silently and is therefore not easily detected by an application.
    (CVE-2024-2398)

  - libcurl did not check the server certificate of TLS connections done to a host specified as an IP address,
    when built to use mbedTLS. libcurl would wrongly avoid using the set hostname function when the specified
    hostname was given as an IP address, therefore completely skipping the certificate check. This affects all
    uses of TLS protocols (HTTPS, FTPS, IMAPS, POPS3, SMTPS, etc). (CVE-2024-2466)

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Ventura 13.6.8, macOS
    Sonoma 14.5, macOS Monterey 12.7.6, watchOS 10.5, visionOS 1.3, tvOS 17.5, iOS 17.5 and iPadOS 17.5. An
    app may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. (CVE-2024-27826)

  - An out-of-bounds write issue was addressed with improved input validation. This issue is fixed in iOS
    16.7.9 and iPadOS 16.7.9, macOS Ventura 13.6.8, macOS Monterey 12.7.6, iOS 17.6 and iPadOS 17.6, macOS
    Sonoma 14.6. Processing a maliciously crafted video file may lead to unexpected app termination.
    (CVE-2024-27873)

  - The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma 14.6, macOS
    Monterey 12.7.6, macOS Ventura 13.6.8. Processing a maliciously crafted file may lead to a denial-of-
    service or potentially disclose memory contents. (CVE-2024-27877)

    (CVE-2024-40835)

  - A security regression (CVE-2006-5051) was discovered in OpenSSH's server (sshd). There is a race condition

    average 6-8 hours of continuous connections up to the maximum the server will accept. Exploitation on
    64-bit systems is believed to be possible but has not been demonstrated at this time.  (CVE-2024-6387)
