Apple : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In September 2008

Buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime 7.5.5 and iTunes 8.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long type attribute in a quicktime tag (1) on a web page or embedded in a (2) .mp4 or (3) .mov file, possibly related to the Check_stack_cookie function and an off-by-one error that leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.

Off-by-one error in the _web_drawInRect:withFont:ellipsis:alignment:measureOnly function in WebKit in Safari in Apple iPhone 1.1.4 and 2.0 and iPod touch 1.1.4 and 2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash) via a JavaScript alert call with an argument that lacks breakable characters and has a length that is a multiple of the memory page size, leading to an out-of-bounds read.

Apple iPhone 2.0.2, in some configurations, allows physically proximate attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, and obtain sensitive information or make arbitrary use of the device, via an Emergency Call tap and a Home double-tap, followed by a tap of any contact's blue arrow.

Java on Apple Mac OS X 10.5.4 and 10.5.5 does not prevent applets from accessing file:// URLs, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs.

The Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) provider in Java on Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11, 10.5.4, and 10.5.5 uses an uninitialized variable, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted applet, related to an "error checking issue."

Integer overflow in the IopfCompleteRequest API in the kernel in Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, and Vista allows context-dependent attackers to gain privileges. NOTE: this issue was originally reported for GEARAspiWDM.sys 2.0.7.5 in Gear Software CD DVD Filter driver before 4.001.7, as used in other products including Apple iTunes and multiple Symantec and Norton products, which allows local users to gain privileges via repeated IoAttachDevice IOCTL calls to \\.\GEARAspiWDMDevice in this GEARAspiWDM.sys. However, the root cause is the integer overflow in the API call itself.

Stack-based buffer overflow in QuickTimeInternetExtras.qtx in an unspecified third-party Indeo v3.2 (aka IV32) codec for QuickTime, when used with Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 on Windows, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted movie file.

Apple iTunes before 8.0 on Mac OS X 10.4.11, when iTunes Music Sharing is enabled but blocked by the host-based firewall, presents misleading information about firewall security, which might allow remote attackers to leverage an exposure that would be absent if the administrator were given better information.

Use-after-free vulnerability in WebKit in Apple iPod touch 1.1 through 2.0.2, and iPhone 1.0 through 2.0.2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a web page with crafted Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) import statements.

Application Sandbox in Apple iPod touch 2.0 through 2.0.2, and iPhone 2.0 through 2.0.2, does not properly isolate third-party applications, which allows attackers to read arbitrary files in a third-party application's sandbox via a different third-party application.

mDNSResponder in Apple Bonjour for Windows before 1.0.5, when an application uses the Bonjour API for unicast DNS, does not choose random values for transaction IDs or source ports in DNS requests, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof DNS responses, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-1447.

Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PICT image that triggers an out-of-bounds read.

Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 on Windows allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PICT image, related to an "invalid pointer issue."

Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 does not properly handle (1) MDAT atoms in MP4 video files within QuickTimeH264.qtx, (2) MDAT atoms in mov video files within QuickTimeH264.scalar, and (3) AVC1 atoms in an unknown media type within an unspecified component, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap corruption and application crash) via a crafted, H.264 encoded movie file.

The CallComponentFunctionWithStorage function in Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 does not properly handle a large entry in the sample_size_table in STSZ atoms, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted movie file.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR) movie file with crafted (1) maxTilt, (2) minFieldOfView, and (3) maxFieldOfView elements in panorama track PDAT atoms.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR) movie file with crafted panorama atoms.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Wiki Server in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.5.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an e-mail message that reaches a mailing-list archive, aka "persistent JavaScript injection."

VideoConference in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 and 10.5 through 10.5.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or execute arbitrary code via vectors involving H.264 encoded media.

Time Machine in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.5.4 uses weak permissions for Time Machine Backup log files, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading these files.

The File Sharing pane in the Sharing preference pane in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.5.4 does not inform users that the complete contents of their own home directories are shared for their own use, which might allow attackers to leverage other vulnerabilities and access files for which sharing was unintended.

Remote Management and Screen Sharing in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.5.4, when used to set a password for a VNC viewer, displays additional input characters beyond the maximum password length, which might make it easier for attackers to guess passwords that the user believed were longer.

Multiple integer overflows in the SearchKit API in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 and 10.5 through 10.5.4 allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via vectors associated with "passing untrusted input" to unspecified API functions.

ir50_32.qtx in an unspecified third-party Indeo v5 codec for QuickTime, when used with Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 on Windows, accesses uninitialized memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted movie file.

Integer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.5.5 on Windows allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PICT image, which triggers heap corruption.
