Apple » Iphone Os : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, CVSS score between 7 and 7.99

In Apple iOS 7 through 9, due to a BlueBorne flaw in the implementation of LEAP (Low Energy Audio Protocol), a large audio command can be sent to a targeted device and lead to a heap overflow with attacker-controlled data. Since the audio commands sent via LEAP are not properly validated, an attacker can use this overflow to gain full control of the device through the relatively high privileges of the Bluetooth stack in iOS. The attack bypasses Bluetooth access control; however, the default "Bluetooth On" value must be present in Settings.

This issue was addressed with improved transparency. This issue is fixed in iOS 12.2. A user may authorize an enterprise administrator to remotely wipe their device without appropriate disclosure.

The Telephony component in Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reset) via a crafted ICMP echo request, which triggers an assertion error related to a "logic issue."

The Telephony component in Apple iPhone OS before 3.1 does not properly handle SMS arrival notifications, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and service interruption) via a crafted SMS message.

Wi-Fi in Apple iOS before 4.3 and Apple TV before 4.2 does not properly perform bounds checking for Wi-Fi frames, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reset) via unspecified traffic on the local wireless network.

The Broadcom BCM4325 and BCM4329 Wi-Fi chips, as used in certain Acer, Apple, Asus, Ford, HTC, Kyocera, LG, Malata, Motorola, Nokia, Pantech, Samsung, and Sony products, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and Wi-Fi outage) via an RSN 802.11i information element.

The kernel in Apple iOS before 7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and device restart) via an invalid packet fragment.

CoreCapture in Apple iOS before 7.1 and Apple TV before 6.1 does not properly validate IOKit API calls, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and device crash) via a crafted app.

The IOAcceleratorFamily API implementation in Apple iOS before 8 and Apple TV before 7 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and device crash) via an application that uses crafted arguments.

The IntelAccelerator driver in the IOAcceleratorFamily subsystem in Apple iOS before 8 and Apple TV before 7 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and device restart) via a crafted application.

Double free vulnerability in Apple iOS before 8 and Apple TV before 7 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (device crash) via vectors related to Mach ports.

CoreTelephony in Apple iOS before 8.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and device restart) via a Class 0 SMS message.

CoreText in Apple iOS 8.x through 8.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (reboot and messaging disruption) via crafted Unicode text that is not properly handled during display truncation in the Notifications feature, as demonstrated by Arabic characters in (1) an SMS message or (2) a WhatsApp message.

The Disk Images component in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, OS X before 10.11.3, and tvOS before 9.1.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

The IOHIDFamily API in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, OS X before 10.11.3, and tvOS before 9.1.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

IOKit in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, OS X before 10.11.3, and tvOS before 9.1.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

The kernel in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, OS X before 10.11.3, and tvOS before 9.1.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

syslog in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, OS X before 10.11.3, and tvOS before 9.1.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

The kernel in Apple iOS before 9.3, tvOS before 9.2, and watchOS before 2.2 does not properly restrict the execute permission, which allows attackers to bypass a code-signing protection mechanism via a crafted app.

CoreCapture in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted app.

libc in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the xmlFAParsePosCharGroup function in libxml2 before 2.9.4, as used in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted XML document.

The kernel in Apple iOS before 9.3.3, OS X before 10.11.6, tvOS before 9.2.2, and watchOS before 2.2.2 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-4582 and CVE-2016-4653.

The kernel in Apple iOS before 9.3.3, OS X before 10.11.6, tvOS before 9.2.2, and watchOS before 2.2.2 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-1863 and CVE-2016-4653.

The Sandbox Profiles component in Apple iOS before 9.3.3, OS X before 10.11.6, tvOS before 9.2.2, and watchOS before 2.2.2 allows attackers to access the process list via a crafted app that makes an API call.
