APPLE-SA-2007-02-15 Security Update 2007-002
Security Update 2007-002 is now available and addresses the following
issues:
Finder
CVE-ID: CVE-2007-0197
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.8, Mac OS X Server v10.4.8
Impact: Mounting a maliciously-crafted disk image may lead to an
application crash or arbitrary code execution
Description: A buffer overflow exists in Finder's handling of
volume names. By enticing a user to mount a malicious disk
image, an attacker could trigger this issue, which may lead to
an application crash or arbitrary code execution. A proof of
concept for this issue has been published on the Month of Apple
Bugs web site (MOAB-09-01-2007). This update addresses the issue
by performing additional validation of disk images. This issue
does not affect systems prior to Mac OS X v10.4. Credit to Kevin
Finisterre of DigitalMunition for reporting this issue.
iChat
CVE-ID: CVE-2007-0614, CVE-2007-0710
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9, Mac OS X Server v10.3.9, Mac OS
X v10.4.8, Mac OS X Server v10.4.8
Impact: Attackers on the local network may be able to cause
iChat to crash
Description: A null pointer dereference in iChat's Bonjour
message handling could allow a local network attacker to cause
an application crash. A proof of concept for this issue in Mac
OS X v10.4 has been published on the Month of Apple Bugs web
site (MOAB-29-01-2007). This update addresses the issues by
performing additional validation of Bonjour messages.
iChat
CVE-ID: CVE-2007-0021
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9, Mac OS X Server v10.3.9, Mac OS
X v10.4.8, Mac OS X Server v10.4.8
Impact: Visiting malicious websites may lead to an application
crash or arbitrary code execution
Description: A format string vulnerability exists in the iChat
AIM URL handler. By enticing a user to access a maliciously-crafted
AIM URL, an attacker can trigger the overflow, which may lead to an
application crash or arbitrary code execution. A proof of concept for
this issue has been published on the Month of Apple Bugs web site
(MOAB-20-01-2007). This update addresses the issue by performing
additional validation of AIM URLs.
UserNotification
CVE-ID: CVE-2007-0023
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9, Mac OS X Server v10.3.9, Mac OS
X v10.4.8, Mac OS X Server v10.4.8
Impact: Malicious local users may be able to obtain system
privileges
Description: The UserNotificationCenter process runs with
elevated privileges in the context of a local user. This may
allow a malicious local user to overwrite or modify system
files. A program that triggers this issue has been published on
the Month of Apple Bugs web site (MOAB-22-01-2007). This update
addresses the issue by having UserNotificationCenter drop its
group privileges immediately after launching.
