Do you know of special tools to test them, or is it possible to test them
with progs like nesuss?

Metasploit (http://www.metasploit.com) has exploits for three different MacOS vulnerabilities:

AppleFileServer LoginExt PathName Overflow
        http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/exploits.html#afp_loginext
Arkeia Backup Client Type 77 Overflow (Mac OS X)
        http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/exploits.html#arkeia_type77_macos
Samba trans2open Overflow (Mac OS X)
        http://www.metasploit.com/projects/Framework/exploits.html#samba_trans2open_osx

Any pen testing tools you use for BSD systems should work fairly well against MacOS X machines.
