CVE

CVE-2013-5189

TITLE

Apple Mac OS X Vulnerable to access restrictions

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2013-004858

DESCRIPTION

Apple Mac OS X before 10.9 does not preserve a certain administrative system-preferences setting across software updates, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended access restrictions in opportunistic circumstances by leveraging an unintended security configuration after the completion of an update. Apple Mac OS X is prone to a local security-bypass vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue to bypass certain security restrictions and perform unauthorized actions. Note: This issue was previously covered in BID 63282 (Apple Mac OS X APPLE-SA-2013-10-22-3 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities), but has been given its own record to better document it. Apple Mac OS X versions prior to 10.9 are vulnerable
