A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved state management. This issue is fixed in macOS Monterey 12.3, Safari 15.4, watchOS 8.5, iOS 15.4 and iPadOS 15.4, tvOS 15.4. Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to code execution.

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 12.x prior to 12.3 Monterey. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:
  - A use after free issue was addressed with improved memory management. Successful exploitation could   result in arbitrary code execution with kernel privileges (CVE-2022-22614). 

  - A logic issue was addressed with improved state management. Successful exploitation could result in   privilege escalation (CVE-2022-22632).

  - A null pointer dereference was addressed with improved validation. Successful exploitation could   result in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2022-22638).

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

The version of Safari installed on the remote host is prior to 15.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the HT213187 advisory. Note that Nessus Network Monitor has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Apple iOS running on the mobile device is prior to 15.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
