mac os x vulnerabilities and exploits

In OpenStack os-vif 1.15.x before 1.15.2, and 1.16.0, a hard-coded MAC aging time of 0 disables MAC learning in linuxbridge, forcing obligatory Ethernet flooding of non-local destinations, which both impedes network performance and allows users to possibly view the content of...

Stack-based buffer overflow in SMB in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via (1) a long workgroup (-W) option to mount_smbfs or (2) an unspecified manipulation of the command line to smbutil....

The XPC implementation in Admin Framework in Apple OS X before 10.10.3 allows local users to bypass authentication and obtain admin privileges via unspecified vectors....

The Mach kernel, as used in operating systems including (1) Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.7 and (2) OpenStep before 4.2, allows local users to gain privileges via a parent process that forces an exception in a setuid child and uses Mach exception ports to modify the child's...

The i386_set_ldt system call in the kernel in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.7 does not properly handle call gates, which allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving the creation of a call gate entry....

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...

Array index error in the (1) dtoa implementation in dtoa.c (aka pdtoa.c) and the (2) gdtoa (aka new dtoa) implementation in gdtoa/misc.c in libc, as used in multiple operating systems and products including in FreeBSD 6.4 and 7.2, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 4.5, Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x...

The kernel in Apple iOS before 8.3, Apple OS X before 10.10.3, and Apple TV before 7.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access) or obtain sensitive memory-content information via a crafted app....

This module exploits a vulnerability in Viscosity 1.4.1 on Mac OS X. The vulnerability exists in the setuid ViscosityHelper, where an insufficient validation of path names allows execution of arbitrary python code as root. This module has been...

Stack-based buffer overflow in Knox Arkeia Server Backup 5.3.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long type 77 request....
