TITLE

Apple macOS process_token_AVCDecode Out-Of-Bounds Write Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Trust: 0.7

sources: ZDI: ZDI-21-377

DESCRIPTION

A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved input validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Big Sur 11.1, Security Update 2020-001 Catalina, Security Update 2020-007 Mojave. An application may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Apple macOS. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.The specific flaw exists within the AppleIntelKBLGraphics kext. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated data structure. Apple macOS could allow a local malicious user to gain elevated privileges on the system, caused by a memory corruption issue in the Graphics Drivers component
