CVE-2010-1843

TITLE

Apple Mac OS X of Networking Service disruption in (DoS) Vulnerabilities

DESCRIPTION

Networking in Apple Mac OS X 10.6.2 through 10.6.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted PIM packet. No authentication or user interaction is required in order to exploit this vulnerability.The specific flaw exists within OSX's IPv6 stack. A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was discovered in the xnu kernel implementation when a specially formatted packet is sent to it. Exploiting this vulnerability will result in a remote denial of service against the target os. Attackers can exploit this issue to crash the affected computer, denying service to legitimate users. Due to the nature of this issue, arbitrary code-execution may be possible; however, this has not been confirmed. NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 44778 (Apple Mac OS X Prior to 10.6.5 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities), but has been given its own record to better document it. This issue affects Mac OS X 10.6 to 10.6.4 and Mac OS X Server 10.6 to 10.6.4. The update addresses new vulnerabilities that affect: AFP Server, AppKit, ATS, CFNetwork, CoreGraphics, Apple Type Service, CoreGraphics, CoreText, Directory Service, Image Capture, ImageIO, Image RAW, Networking, Kernel, OpenSSL, Password Server, Printing, QuickLook, QuickTime, Safari RSS, Time Machine, and xar. This BID is being retired. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Secure your corporate defenses and reduce complexity in handling vulnerability threats with the new Secunia Vulnerability Intelligence Manager (VIM).
