An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 11.2 is affected. macOS before 10.13.2 is affected. tvOS before 11.2 is affected. watchOS before 4.2 is affected. The issue involves the "Kernel" component. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted app.

The remote host is running Mac OS X 10.11.6 or Mac OS X 10.12.6 and is missing a security update. It is therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities affecting the following components :

  - apache
  - curl
  - IOAcceleratorFamily
  - IOKit
  - Kernel
  - OpenSSL
  - Screen Sharing Server

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X that is 10.13.x prior to 10.13.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the following components :

  - apache
  - curl
  - Directory Utility
  - IOAcceleratorFamily
  - IOKit
  - Intel Graphics Driver
  - Kernel
  - Mail
  - Mail Drafts
  - OpenSSL
  - Screen Sharing Server

Note that successful exploitation of the most serious issues can result in arbitrary code execution.

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 11.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the HT208334 advisory.
