Security Update 2003-11-19 includes updates to several components of Mac OS X v10.2 "Jaguar" that meet this criteria. Updates for Mac OS X v10.2.8 "Jaguar" and Mac OS X Server v10.2.8 ================================================================= gm4: Fixes CAN-2001-1411 a format string vulnerability in the gm4 utility.

QuickTime for Java: Fixes CAN-2003-0871 a potential vulnerability that could allow unauthorized access to a system. zlib: Addresses CAN-2003-0107. While there were no functions in Mac OS X that used the vulnerable gzprintf() function, the underlying issue in zlib has been fixed to protect any third-party applications that may potentially use this library. Updates for Mac OS X v10.3.1 "Panther" and Mac OS X Server v10.3.1 ================================================================== OpenSSL: Fixes CAN-2003-0851 parsing particular malformed ASN.1 sequences are now handled in a more secure manner. zlib: Addresses CAN-2003-0107.
