Apple » Mac Os X : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2010

The Application Firewall in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 drops unspecified firewall rules after a reboot, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via packet data, related to a "timing issue."

Buffer overflow in CoreAudio in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 and 10.6.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted MP4 audio file.

Buffer overflow in Image RAW in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 and 10.6.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted DNG image.

xar in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 does not properly validate package signatures, which allows attackers to have an unspecified impact via a modified package.

Buffer overflow in Cocoa spell checking in AppKit in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted document.

AFP Server in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 does not prevent guest use of AFP shares when guest access is disabled, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a mount request.

freshclam in ClamAV in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 with Security Update 2009-005 has an incorrect launchd.plist ProgramArguments key and consequently does not run, which might allow remote attackers to introduce viruses into the system.

CoreAudio in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via crafted audio content with QDM2 encoding, which triggers a buffer overflow due to inconsistent length fields, related to QDCA.

CoreAudio in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via crafted audio content with QDMC encoding.

Heap-based buffer overflow in quicktime.qts in CoreMedia and QuickTime in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed .3g2 movie file with H.263 encoding that triggers an incorrect buffer length calculation.

Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in CoreTypes in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 makes it easier for user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript via a web page that offers a download with a Content-Type value that is not on the list of possibly unsafe content types for Safari, as demonstrated by the values for the (1) .ibplugin and (2) .url extensions.

DesktopServices in Apple Mac OS X 10.6 before 10.6.3 preserves file ownership during an authenticated Finder copy, which might allow local users to bypass intended disk-quota restrictions and have unspecified other impact by copying files owned by other users.

Disk Images in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted disk image with bzip2 compression.

The hfs implementation in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 and 10.6.x before 10.6.5 supports hard links to directories and does not prevent certain deeply nested directory structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (filesystem corruption) via a crafted application that calls the mkdir and link functions, related to the fsck_hfs program in the diskdev_cmds component.

The png_decompress_chunk function in pngrutil.c in libpng 1.0.x before 1.0.53, 1.2.x before 1.2.43, and 1.4.x before 1.4.1 does not properly handle compressed ancillary-chunk data that has a disproportionately large uncompressed representation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption, and application hang) via a crafted PNG file, as demonstrated by use of the deflate compression method on data composed of many occurrences of the same character, related to a "decompression bomb" attack.

The slap_modrdn2mods function in modrdn.c in OpenLDAP 2.4.22 does not check the return value of a call to the smr_normalize function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a modrdn call with an RDN string containing invalid UTF-8 sequences, which triggers a free of an invalid, uninitialized pointer in the slap_mods_free function, as demonstrated using the Codenomicon LDAPv3 test suite.

Use-after-free vulnerability in the abstract file-descriptor handling interface in the cupsdDoSelect function in scheduler/select.c in the scheduler in cupsd in CUPS before 1.4.4, when kqueue or epoll is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash or hang) via a client disconnection during listing of a large number of print jobs, related to improperly maintaining a reference count. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-3553.

Disk Images in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 does not provide the expected warning for an unsafe file type in an internet enabled disk image, which makes it easier for user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a package file type.

Directory Services in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 does not properly perform authorization during processing of record names, which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

Event Monitor in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 does not properly validate hostnames of SSH clients, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (arbitrary client blacklisting) via a crafted DNS PTR record, related to a "plist injection issue."

Heap-based buffer overflow in ImageIO in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted JP2 (JPEG2000) image, related to incorrect calculation and the CGImageReadGetBytesAtOffset function.

Buffer overflow in Image RAW in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted NEF image.

Buffer overflow in Image RAW in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PEF image.

Mail in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 does not disable the filter rules associated with a deleted mail account, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.

SFLServer in OS Services in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows local users to gain privileges via vectors related to use of wheel group membership during access to the home directories of user accounts.
