TITLE

Apple OS X Login window arbitrary code execution vulnerability in privileged context

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2016-004017

DESCRIPTION

Login Window in Apple OS X before 10.11.6 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or obtain sensitive user information via a crafted app that leverages a "type confusion.". 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 _XSetDictionaryForCurrentSession, an attacker can cause a type confusion 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
