The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 12.x prior to 12.1 Monterey. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities including the following:

  • A buffer overflow issue was addressed with improved memory handling. Processing a maliciously crafted USD file may lead to unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2021-30979)

  • An out-of-bounds read was addressed with improved input validation. Playing a malicious audio file may lead to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2021-30958)

  • An out-of-bounds write issue was addressed with improved bounds checking. Processing a maliciously crafted USD file may disclose memory contents. (CVE-2021-30929)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the operating systemโ€™s self-reported version number.
