An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.13.1 is affected. The issue involves the "CFString" component. It allows attackers to bypass intended memory-read restrictions via a crafted app.

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 11.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as described in the HT208143 security advisory.

The remote host is running a version of macOS that is prior to 10.13. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the following components :
