CVE-2012-3728


TITLE

Apple iOS Privileged vulnerability in Kernel

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2012-004539

DESCRIPTION

The kernel in Apple iOS before 6 dereferences invalid pointers during the handling of packet-filter data structures, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted program that makes packet-filter ioctl calls. Apple iOS for the iPhone, the iPod touch, andthe iPad is prone to a local privilege-escalation vulnerability that affects the kernel. Local attackers can exploit this issue to alter kernel memory and execute arbitrary code with system-level privileges. Successfully exploiting this issue can allow attackers to elevate privileges, leading to a complete compromise of the device. This issue is fixed in Apple iOS 6 version. NOTE: This issue was previously discussed in BID 55612 (Apple iPhone/iPad/iPod touch Prior to iOS 6 Multiple Vulnerabilities) but has been given its own record to better document it
