CVE-2008-3643

TITLE

Multiple PHP XML-RPC implementations vulnerable to code injection

DESCRIPTION

Unspecified vulnerability in Finder in Mac OS X 10.5.5 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (continuous termination and restart) via a crafted Desktop file that generates an error when producing its icon, related to an "error recovery issue.". A vulnerability in a common PHP extension module could allow a remote attacker to execute code on a vulnerable system. Apple Finder is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability. This issue arises when the application tries to create an icon for maliciously crafted files that are located on the desktop. Successful exploits may allow attackers to crash the affected application, denying service to legitimate users. This issue affects Mac OS X v10.5.5 and Mac OS X Server v10.5.5. NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 31681 (Apple Mac OS X 2008-007 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities) but has been given its own record to better document the vulnerability. The security update addresses a total of 11 new vulnerabilities that affect the ColorSync, CUPS, Finder, launchd, Networking, Postfix, PSNormalizer, rlogin, Script Editor, and Weblog components of Mac OS X. The advisory also contains security updates for 30 previously reported issues. A false discovery issue exists in the Finder where malicious files on the desktop can cause the Finder to terminate unexpectedly when generating icons, and the Finder will continue to restart and terminate. Until this file is deleted, the user account cannot be accessed through the Finder user interface. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bist Du interessiert an einem neuen Job in IT-Sicherheit?
