TITLE

Apple OS X Vulnerability in obtaining important information in audio

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2016-004019

DESCRIPTION

Audio in Apple OS X before 10.11.6 mishandles a size value, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted audio file. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.The specific flaw exists within the handling of MOV files. The issue lies in the failure to validate a user-supplied value prior to using it as the size parameter in a call to memcpy. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to leak sensitive information in the context of the current process. Apple Mac OS X is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code, gain sensitive information, cause denial-of-service conditions, bypass security restrictions, and perform unauthorized actions. This may aid in other attacks. Apple Mac OS X 10.9.5, 10.10.5 and 10.11 through 10.11.5 are vulnerable. Audio is one of the audio components
