TITLE

Apple iOS and macOS of IOKit Component vulnerable to arbitrary code execution in privileged context

DESCRIPTION

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 11.2 is affected. macOS before 10.13.2 is affected. The issue involves the "IOKit" component. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted app. Apple iOS is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to bypass security restrictions, execute arbitrary code and perform unauthorized action; this may aid in launching further attacks. Versions prior to iOS 11.2 are vulnerable. IOTimeSyncClockManagerUserClient provides the userspace interface for the IOTimeSyncClockManager IOService. IOTimeSyncClockManagerUserClient overrides the IOUserClient::clientClose method but it treats it like a destructor. IOUserClient::clientClose is not a destructor and plays no role in the lifetime management of an IOKit object. It is perfectly possible to call ::clientClose (via io_service_close) in one thread and call an external method in another thread at the same time. IOTimeSyncClockManagerUserClient::clientClose drops references on a bunch of OSArrays causing them to be free'd, it also destroys the locks which are supposed to protect access to those arrays. This leads directly to multiple UaFs if you also call external methods which manipulate those arrays in other threads. For an exploit some care would be required to ensure correct interleaving such that the OSArray was destroyed and then used *before* the lock which is supposed to be protecting the array is also...

CVE-2017-13080: Mathy Vanhoef of the imec-DistriNet group at KU Leuven Installation note: This update is available through iTunes and Software Update on your iOS device, and will not appear in your computer's Software Update application, or in the Apple Downloads site. Make sure you have an Internet connection and have installed the latest version of iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/ iTunes and Software Update on the device will automatically check Apple's update server on its weekly schedule. When an update is detected, it is downloaded and the option to be installed is presented to the user when the iOS device is docked. We recommend applying the update immediately if possible. Selecting Don't Install will present the option the next time you connect your iOS device. The automatic update process may take up to a week depending on the day that iTunes or the device checks for updates. You may manually obtain the update via the Check for Updates button within iTunes, or the Software Update on your device. To check that the iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad has been updated: * Navigate to Settings * Select General * Select About. The version after applying this update will be "11.2". -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 APPLE-SA-2017-12-6-1 macOS High Sierra 10.13.2, Security Update 2017-002 Sierra, and Security Update 2017-005 El Capitan macOS High Sierra 10.13.2, Security Update 2017-002 Sierra, and Security Update 2017-005 El Capitan are now available and address the following: apache Available for: macOS High Sierra 10.13.1, macOS Sierra 10.12.6, OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 Impact: Processing a maliciously crafted Apache configuration directive may result in the disclosure of process memory Description: Multiple issues were addressed by updating to version 2.4.28.
