Apple macOS of APFS Plaintext in components APFS Data read vulnerabilities

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2017-010375

DESCRIPTION

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.13.1 is affected. The issue involves the "APFS" component. It does not properly restrict the DMA mapping time of FileVault decryption buffers, which allows attackers to read cleartext APFS data via a crafted Thunderbolt adapter. Apple macOS High Sierra is a set of dedicated operating systems developed by Apple (Apple) for Mac computers. APFS is one of the Apple device-specific file system components. A security vulnerability exists in the APFS component of Apple macOS High Sierra prior to 10.13.1. Attackers can use a specially crafted Thunderbolt converter to exploit this vulnerability to recover unencrypted APFS file system data
