Apple » Mac Os X : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

ICMP information such as (1) netmask and (2) timestamp is allowed from arbitrary hosts.

Internet Explorer 5.1 for Macintosh on Mac OS X allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by causing a BinHex or MacBinary file type to be downloaded, which causes the files to be executed if automatic decoding is enabled.

Apple MacOS X 10.0 and 10.1 allow a local user to read and write to a user's desktop folder via insecure default permissions for the Desktop when it is created in some languages.

Format string vulnerability in gm4 (aka m4) on Mac OS X may allow local users to gain privileges if gm4 is called by setuid programs.

nidump on MacOS X before 10.3 allows local users to read the encrypted passwords from the password file by specifying passwd as a command line argument.

Find-By-Content in Mac OS X 10.0 through 10.0.4 creates world-readable index files named .FBCIndex in every directory, which allows remote attackers to learn the contents of files in web accessible directories.

NetInfo Manager for Mac OS X 10.0 through 10.1 allows local users to gain root privileges by opening applications using the (1) "recent items" and (2) "services" menus, which causes the applications to run with root privileges.

Point to Point Protocol daemon (pppd) in MacOS x 10.0 and 10.1 through 10.1.5 provides the username and password on the command line, which allows local users to obtain authentication information via the ps command.

OpenSSL 0.9.6d and earlier, and 0.9.7-beta2 and earlier, does not properly handle ASCII representations of integers on 64 bit platforms, which could allow attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflows in OpenSSL 0.9.6d and earlier, and 0.9.7-beta2 and earlier, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a large client master key in SSL2 or (2) a large session ID in SSL3.

The ASN1 library in OpenSSL 0.9.6d and earlier, and 0.9.7-beta2 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via invalid encodings.

IPSEC implementations including (1) FreeS/WAN and (2) KAME do not properly calculate the length of authentication data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via spoofed, short Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) packets, which result in integer signedness errors.

SoftwareUpdate for MacOS 10.1.x does not use authentication when downloading a software update, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by posing as the Apple update server via techniques such as DNS spoofing or cache poisoning, and supplying Trojan Horse updates.

The Sun RPC functionality in multiple libc implementations does not provide a time-out mechanism when reading data from TCP connections, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang).

Mac OS X 10.2.2 allows local users to gain privileges by mounting a disk image file that was created on another system, aka "Local User Privilege Elevation via Disk Image File."

Mac OS X 10.2.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by accessing the CUPS Printing Web Administration utility, aka "CUPS Printing Web Administration is Remotely Accessible."

Mac OS X 10.2.2 allows local users to gain privileges via a mounted ISO 9600 CD, aka "User Privilege Elevation via Mounting an ISO 9600 CD."

Unknown vulnerability in NetInfo Manager application in Mac OS X 10.2.2 allows local users to access restricted parts of a filesystem.

Mac OS X 10.2.2 allows local users to read files that only allow write access via the map_fd() Mach system call.

Multiple buffer overflows in Cyrus SASL library 2.1.9 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via (1) long inputs during user name canonicalization, (2) characters that need to be escaped during LDAP authentication using saslauthd, or (3) an off-by-one error in the log writer, which does not allocate space for the null character that terminates a string.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allows local users with lp privileges to create or overwrite arbitrary files via file race conditions, as demonstrated by ice-cream.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allows remote attackers to add printers without authentication via a certain UDP packet, which can then be used to perform unauthorized activities such as stealing the local root certificate for the administration server via a "need authorization" page, as demonstrated by new-coke.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by causing negative arguments to be fed into memcpy() calls via HTTP requests with (1) a negative Content-Length value or (2) a negative length in a chunked transfer encoding.

jobs.c in Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 does not properly use the strncat function call when processing the options string, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack.

filters/image-gif.c in Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 does not properly check for zero-length GIF images, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via modified chunk headers, as demonstrated by nogif.
