Security Update 2008-005 is er
Bij Apple doen ze kennelijk niet aan vakantie, aangezien ons vanochtend voor dag en dauw wederom een forse beveiligingsupdate in de nuchtere maag is gesplitst. De update is bedoeld voor Mac OS X Tiger, Leopard én Server en varieert van 65MB tot 180MB in grootte.
Voor de echte diehards volgt hieronder het overzicht van alle lekken en gevaren waar u tot op heden aan blootstond. Onder het genot van een kopje koffie zal ook ondergetekende daar dadelijk eens even goed voor gaan zitten. De update vind je zoals gewoonlijk in Software update onder het appeltje. Open Scripting Architecture
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2830
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: A local user may execute commands with elevated privileges
Description: A design issue exists in the Open Scripting Architecture libraries when determining whether to load scripting addition plugins into applications running with elevated privileges. Sending scripting addition commands to a privileged application may allow the execution of arbitrary code with those privileges. This update addresses the issue by not loading scripting addition plugins into applications running with system privileges. The recently reported ARDAgent and SecurityAgent issues are addressed by this update. Credit to Charles Srstka for reporting this issue.
BIND
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-1447
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: BIND is susceptible to DNS cache poisoning and may return forged information
Description: The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) server is distributed with Mac OS X, and is not enabled by default. When enabled, the BIND server provides translation between host names and IP addresses. A weakness in the DNS protocol may allow remote attackers to perform DNS cache poisoning attacks. As a result, systems that rely on the BIND server for DNS may receive forged information. This update addresses the issue by implementing source port randomization to improve resilience against cache poisoning attacks. For Mac OS X v10.4.11 systems, BIND is updated to version 9.3.5-P1. For Mac OS X v10.5.4 systems, BIND is updated to version 9.4.2-P1. Credit to Dan Kaminsky of IOActive for reporting this issue.
CarbonCore
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2320
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: Processing long filenames may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: A stack buffer overflow exists in the handling of long filenames. Processing long filenames may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through improved bounds checking. Credit to Thomas Raffetseder of the International Secure Systems Lab and Sergio ‘shadown’ Alvarez of n.runs AG for reporting this issue.
CoreGraphics
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2321
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: CoreGraphics contains memory corruption issues in the processing of arguments. Passing untrusted input to CoreGraphics via an application, such as a web browser, may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through improved bounds checking. Credit to Michal Zalewski of Google for reporting this issue.
CoreGraphics
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2322
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: Viewing a maliciously crafted PDF file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: An integer overflow in the handling of PDF files may result in a heap buffer overflow. Viewing a maliciously crafted PDF file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through additional validation of PDF files. Credit to Pariente Kobi working with the iDefense VCP for reporting this issue.
Data Detectors Engine
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2323
Available for: Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: Viewing maliciously crafted messages with Data Detectors may lead to an unexpected application termination
Description: Data Detectors are used to extract reference information from textual content or archives. A resource consumption issue exists in Data Detectors’ handling of textual content. Viewing maliciously crafted content in an application that uses Data Detectors may lead to a denial of service, but not arbitrary code execution. This issue does not affect systems prior to Mac OS X v10.5.
Disk Utility
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2324
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11
Impact: A local user may obtain system privileges
Description: The “Repair Permissions” tool in Disk Utility makes /usr/bin/emacs setuid. After the Repair Permissions tool has been run, a local user may use emacs to run commands with system privileges. This update addresses the issue by correcting the permissions applied to emacs in the Repair Permissions tool. This issue does not affect systems running Mac OS X v10.5 and later. Credit to Anton Rang and Brian Timares for reporting this issue.
OpenLDAP
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2952
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: A remote attacker may be able to cause an unexpected application termination
Description: An issue exists in OpenLDAP’s ASN.1 BER decoding. Processing a maliciously crafted LDAP message may trigger an assertion and lead to an unexpected application termination of the OpenLDAP daemon, slapd. This update addresses the issue by performing additional validation of LDAP messages.
OpenSSL
CVE-ID: CVE-2007-5135
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: A remote attacker may be able to cause an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: A range checking issue exists in the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() utility function within OpenSSL. In an application using this function, processing maliciously crafted packets may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This update addresses the issue through improved bounds checking.
PHP
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2051, CVE-2008-2050, CVE-2007-4850, CVE-2008-0599, CVE-2008-0674
Available for: Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: Multiple vulnerabilities in PHP 5.2.5
Description: PHP is updated to version 5.2.6 to address multiple vulnerabilities, the most serious of which may lead to arbitrary code execution. Further information is available via the PHP website at https://www.php.net/ PHP version 5.2.x is only provided with Mac OS X v10.5 systems.
QuickLook
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2325
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11, Mac OS X v10.5.4, Mac OS X Server v10.5.4
Impact: Downloading a maliciously crafted Microsoft Office file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: Multiple memory corruption issues exist in QuickLook’s handling of Microsoft Office files. Downloading a maliciously crafted Microsoft Office file may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution.
