TITLE

Apple Xcode Tool WebObjects Local sessions at ID Improper addition vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

The WOHyperlink implementation in WebObjects in Apple Xcode tools before 3.1 appends local session IDs to generated non-local URLs, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information by reading the requests for these URLs. Apple WebObjects is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability when generating URIs for HTML documents. To exploit this issue an affected application would have to contain a URI to an arbitrary website that an attacker has control of or on which the attacker can view activity logs. Harvested session ID data can aid in attacks. Versions of WebObjects that are affected are currently unspecified, however those included in Xcode versions prior to 3.1 are affected. Xcode is the development tool used on Apple machines. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Want a new job? http://secunia.com/secunia_security_specialist/ http://secunia.com/hardcore_disassembler_and_reverse_engineer/ International Partner Manager - Project Sales in the IT-Security Industry: http://corporate.secunia.com/about_secunia/64/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE: Apple Xcode tools Vulnerability and Security Issue SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA31060 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/31060/ CRITICAL: Moderately critical IMPACT: Exposure of sensitive information, System access WHERE: >From remote SOFTWARE: Apple Xcode 2.x http://secunia.com/product/10144/ Apple Xcode 3.x http://secunia.com/product/19297/ DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability and a security issue have been reported in Xcode tools, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information or to compromise a user's system. 1) A boundary error in the handling of .funhouse files in CoreImage Examples can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow when a user is tricked into opening a specially crafted .funhouse file. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. 2) An error in WebObjects exists within the handling of session IDs where the session ID is always appended to the URL generated by WOHyperlink. This may lead to the disclosure of session IDs when generating URLs to other web sites. SOLUTION: Update to version 3.1.
