A buffer overflow was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in macOS Mojave 10.14.4. Mounting a maliciously crafted NFS network share may lead to arbitrary code execution with system privileges.

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 10.14.x prior to 10.14.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

 - Mounting a maliciously crafted NFS network share may lead to arbitrary code execution with system privileges. (CVE-2019-8508)

 - An application may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. (CVE-2019-8529)

 - A malicious application may be able to execute arbitrary code with system privileges (CVE-2019-8549)

The remote host is running Mac OS X 10.12.6 and is missing a security update. It is therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities including:

  - A malicious application may be able to execute arbitrary code     with kernel privileges. (CVE-2019-8555)

  - A malicious application may be able to determine kernel memory     layout. (CVE-2019-6207, CVE-2019-8510)

  - A malicious application may be able to read restricted memory.
