TITLE

Apple Mac OS X Vulnerability that can bypass access restrictions in the application firewall

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2010-001239

DESCRIPTION

The Application Firewall in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 drops unspecified firewall rules after a reboot, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via packet data, related to a "timing issue.". Attackers can exploit this issue to bypass firewall rules. This may lead to other attacks. Mac OS X 10.5.8 and Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 are vulnerable. NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 39020 (Apple Mac OS X APPLE-SA-2010-03-29-1 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities) but has been assigned its own record to better document it. The vulnerability is related to "timing issues"
