TITLE

Apple iOS Of the kernel IOKit Vulnerable to arbitrary code execution in a privileged context

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2015-004742

DESCRIPTION

IOKit in the kernel in Apple iOS before 9 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted app, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-5844 and CVE-2015-5846. 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
