CVE-2014-4437


TITLE

Apple OS X of LaunchServices Vulnerability that bypasses sandbox restrictions

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2014-004877

DESCRIPTION

LaunchServices in Apple OS X before 10.10 allows attackers to bypass intended sandbox restrictions via an application that specifies a crafted handler for the Content-Type field of an object. Apple Mac OS X is prone to a local security-bypass vulnerability. A remote attacker can leverage this issue to perform unauthorized actions. Versions prior to Apple Mac OS X 10.10 are vulnerable
