Apple : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2008

Stack-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime Player 7.5.5 and iTunes 8.0.2.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a MOV file with "long arguments," related to an "off by one overflow."

pstopdf in CUPS 1.3.8 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/pstopdf.log temporary file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-1333.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the web interface in Apple iPhone Configuration Web Utility 1.0 on Windows allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.

Integer overflow in the _cupsImageReadPNG function in CUPS 1.1.17 through 1.3.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PNG image with a large height value, which bypasses a validation check and triggers a buffer overflow.

The web interface (cgi-bin/admin.c) in CUPS before 1.3.8 uses the guest username when a user is not logged on to the web server, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended policy and conduct CSRF attacks via the (1) add and (2) cancel RSS subscription functions.

cupsd in CUPS 1.3.9 and earlier allows local users, and possibly remote attackers, to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by adding a large number of RSS Subscriptions, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference. NOTE: this issue can be triggered remotely by leveraging CVE-2008-5184.

Apple iPhone 2.1 with firmware 5F136, when Require Passcode is enabled and Show SMS Preview is disabled, allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information by performing an Emergency Call tap and then reading SMS messages on the device screen, aka Apple bug number 6267416.

Apple Mail.app 3.5 on Mac OS X, when "Store draft messages on the server" is enabled, stores draft copies of S/MIME email in plaintext on the email server, which allows server owners and remote man-in-the-middle attackers to read sensitive mail.

The default configuration of Java 1.5 on Apple Mac OS X 10.5.4 and 10.5.5 contains a jurisdiction policy that limits Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) key sizes to 128 bits, which makes it easier for attackers to decrypt ciphertext produced by JCE.

Managed Client in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5.6 sometimes misidentifies a system when installing per-host configuration settings, which allows context-dependent attackers to have an unspecified impact by leveraging unintended settings, as demonstrated by the screen saver lock setting.

Apple Type Services (ATS) in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted embedded font in a PDF file.

Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in the Quarantine feature in CoreTypes in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.6 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an executable file with the content type indicating no application association for the file, which does not trigger a "potentially unsafe" warning message.

Safari in Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.1 does not isolate the call-approval dialog from the process of launching new applications, which allows remote attackers to make arbitrary phone calls via a crafted HTML document.

Safari in Apple iPhone OS 2.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 2.1 through 2.1 does not restrict an IFRAME's content display to the boundaries of the IFRAME, which allows remote attackers to spoof a user interface via a crafted HTML document.

Safari in Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.1 does not properly handle HTML TABLE elements, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted HTML document.

The Passcode Lock feature in Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.1 displays SMS messages when the emergency-call screen is visible, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading these messages. NOTE: this might be a duplicate of CVE-2008-4593.

Race condition in the Passcode Lock feature in Apple iPhone OS 2.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 2.0 through 2.1 allows physically proximate attackers to remove the lock and launch arbitrary applications by restoring the device from a backup.

The Passcode Lock feature in Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.1 allows physically proximate attackers to leverage the emergency-call ability of locked devices to make a phone call to an arbitrary number.

Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.1 changes the encryption level of PPTP VPN connections to a lower level than was previously used, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or hijack a connection by decrypting network traffic.

UDF in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5.6 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malformed UDF volume in a crafted ISO file.

Podcast Producer in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.6 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access via unspecified vectors.

natd in network_cmds in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5.6, when Internet Sharing is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted TCP packet.

The strptime API in Libsystem in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5.6 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted date string, related to improper memory allocation.

Integer overflow in the inet_net_pton API in Libsystem in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5.6 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this may be related to the WLB-2008080064 advisory published by SecurityReason on 20080822; however, as of 20081216, there are insufficient details to be sure.

The kernel in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and system halt) by running an application that is dynamically linked to libraries on an NFS server, related to occurrence of an exception in this application.
