CVE-2013-5172

TITLE

Apple Mac OS X Service disruption in some kernels (DoS) Vulnerabilities

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2013-004857

DESCRIPTION

The kernel in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9 does not properly determine the output length for SHA-2 digest function calls, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) by triggering a digest operation, as demonstrated by an IPSec connection. Apple Mac OS X is prone to a remote denial of service vulnerability. Successfully exploiting this issue will allow attackers to trigger a kernel panic causing denial-of-service conditions. 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. Mac OS X versions prior to 10.9 are vulnerable. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service (unexpected system termination)
