Apple » Mac Os X » 10.0.1 : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2003

Mac OS X before 10.3 initializes the TCP timestamp with a constant number, which allows remote attackers to determine the system's uptime via the ID field in a TCP packet.

Mail in Mac OS X before 10.3, when configured to use MD5 Challenge Response, uses plaintext authentication if the CRAM-MD5 hashed login fails, which could allow remote attackers to gain privileges by sniffing the password.

Unknown vulnerability in Mac OS X before 10.3 allows local users to access Dock functions from behind Screen Effects when Full Keyboard Access is enabled using the Keyboard pane in System Preferences.

slpd daemon in Mac OS X before 10.3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0875.

Mac OS X before 10.3 with core files enabled allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files and read core files via a symlink attack on core files that are created with predictable names in the /cores directory.

Finder in Mac OS X 10.2.8 and earlier sets global read/write/execute permissions on directories when they are dragged (copied) from a mounted volume such as a disk image (DMG), which could cause the directories to have less restrictive permissions than intended.

The Kerberos login authentication feature in Mac OS X, when used with an LDAPv3 server and LDAP bind authentication, may send cleartext passwords to the LDAP server when the AuthenticationAuthority attribute is not set.

IPSec in Mac OS X before 10.2.6 does not properly handle certain incoming security policies that match by port, which could allow traffic that is not explicitly allowed by the policies.

Mac OS X before 10.2.5 allows guest users to modify the permissions of the DropBox folder and read unauthorized files.

DirectoryServices in MacOS X trusts the PATH environment variable to locate and execute the touch command, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands by modifying the PATH to point to a directory containing a malicious touch program.
