TITLE

Apple OS X Graphics driver subsystem NVIDIA Vulnerability in drivers that can obtain important information from kernel memory

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2015-005580

DESCRIPTION

The NVIDIA driver in the Graphics Drivers subsystem in Apple OS X before 10.11.1 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-7019. Apple Mac OS X is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code, cause denial-of-service conditions, bypass security restrictions and perform unauthorized actions. This may aid in other attacks. Graphics Drivers is one of the graphics driver components
