The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 10.14.x prior to 10.14.6 Supplemental Update 2, 10.13.x prior to 10.13.6 Security Update 2019-005, or 10.12.x prior to 10.12.6 Security Update 2019-005. It is, therefore, affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause an application crash, or potentially achieve arbitrary code execution.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the operating system’s self-reported version number.
