CVE-2016-4639


TITLE

Apple OS X Service operation in the login window (DoS) Vulnerabilities

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2016-004073

DESCRIPTION

Login Window in Apple OS X before 10.11.6 does not properly initialize memory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors. 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 CoreGraphics. By interacting with PKGTransactionWillSwitchSpaces, an attacker can cause a memory corruption condition. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the WindowServer. 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. Login Window is one of the login window components
