CVE-2016-1774: Apple Mac OS X Server

Medium severity, CVSS 5.3. EPSS: 1.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Time Machine server in Server App in Apple OS X Server before 5.1 does not notify the user about ignored permissions during a backup, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information in opportunistic circumstances by reading backup data that lacks intended restrictions.
