DESCRIPTION

libpthread in the kernel in Apple iOS before 9 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors. Apple iOS is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to bypass security restrictions, obtain sensitive information, execute arbitrary code, cause a denial-of-service condition, perform unauthorized actions and gain system privileges; this may aid in launching further attacks. Versions prior to iOS 9 are vulnerable. Apple iOS is an operating system developed by Apple (Apple) for mobile devices
