TITLE

Apple OS X of Apple ID OD Vulnerability to change arbitrary user password in plug-in

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2015-004286

DESCRIPTION

The Apple ID OD plug-in in Apple OS X before 10.10.5 allows attackers to change arbitrary user passwords via a crafted app. An attacker must have shell access to exploit this vulnerability, however Guest access is sufficient.The specific flaw exists within the authentication of users who use their iCloud account and password to log in to OS X. Any user is able to change the password of these users without knowing the previous password. This allows an attacker to run arbitrary commands as that user. If the target user is an Admin, the attacker can run arbitrary commands as root. Apple Mac OS X is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code with system privileges, gain admin privileges, bypass security restrictions, cause denial-of-service conditions, obtain sensitive information, and perform other attacks. Note: The issue described by CVE-2015-3778 has been removed. These issues affect OS X prior to 10.10.5. Apple iOS is an operating system developed by Apple (Apple) for mobile devices. Apple ID OD is one of the username plugins required to use various Apple services. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability with the help of a specially crafted application to change any user's password
