CVE-2009-2810


TITLE

Apple Mac OS X of Launch Services Vulnerable to arbitrary code execution

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2009-002338

DESCRIPTION

Launch Services in Apple Mac OS X 10.6.x before 10.6.2 recursively clears quarantine information upon opening a quarantined folder, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a quarantined application that does not trigger a "potentially unsafe" warning message. Apple Mac OS X is prone to a remote security-bypass vulnerability that affects the Launch Services API. An attacker can exploit this issue by enticing a user to download a malicious file and launch it without being warned. Successful exploits may bypass the security feature that displays a warning dialog box before executing malicious files from the quarantined directory. This issue affects the following: Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.6.1 Mac OS X Server 10.6 and 10.6.1 NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 36956 (Apple Mac OS X 2009-006 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities), but has been assigned its own record to better document it. This may allow unsafe items such as applications to be launched without a warning dialog
