CVE-2009-2839


TITLE

Apple Mac OS X Vulnerability in arbitrary code execution in screen sharing

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2009-002342

DESCRIPTION

Screen Sharing in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 allows remote VNC servers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via unspecified vectors. An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable process. Failed exploit attempts are likely to result in denial-of-service conditions. NOTE: These issues were previously covered in BID 36956 (Apple Mac OS X 2009-006 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities), but have been assigned their own record to better document them
