Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues 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 16.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

The remote host is running a version of macOS / Mac OS X that is 13.x prior to 13.4. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - In Sudo before 1.9.12p2, the sudoedit (aka -e) feature mishandles extra arguments passed in the user-     provided environment variables (SUDO_EDITOR, VISUAL, and EDITOR), allowing a local attacker to append     arbitrary entries to the list of files to process. This can lead to privilege escalation. Affected     versions are 1.8.0 through 1.9.12.p1. The problem exists because a user-specified editor may contain a
    -- argument that defeats a protection mechanism, e.g., an EDITOR='vim -- /path/to/extra/file' value.
    (CVE-2023-22809)

  - A type confusion issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in iOS 16.5 and iPadOS     16.5, watchOS 9.5, tvOS 16.5, macOS Ventura 13.4. An app may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel     privileges. (CVE-2023-27930)

  - The issue was addressed with additional permissions checks. This issue is fixed in iOS 15.7.6 and iPadOS     15.7.6, macOS Monterey 12.6.6, macOS Ventura 13.4. A sandboxed app may be able to observe system-wide     network connections. (CVE-2023-27940)

  - This issue was addressed with improved redaction of sensitive information. This issue is fixed in watchOS     9.5, tvOS 16.5, macOS Ventura 13.4, macOS Big Sur 11.7.7, macOS Monterey 12.6.6, iOS 16.5 and iPadOS 16.5.

  - An issue was discovered in libxml2 before 2.10.4. When hashing empty dict strings in a crafted XML     document, xmlDictComputeFastKey in dict.c can produce non-deterministic values, leading to various logic     and memory errors, such as a double free. This behavior occurs because there is an attempt to use the     first byte of an empty string, and any value is possible (not solely the '\0' value). (CVE-2023-29469)
