Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2017-002434

DESCRIPTION

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.12.4 is affected. The issue involves the "libxslt" component. It allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code and perform unauthorized actions. Failed exploit attempts may result in a denial-of-service condition. Apple macOS Sierra is a dedicated operating system developed by Apple for Mac computers. libxslt is an XSLT (XML language for defining XML transformations) C library developed for the GNOME project
