A vulnerability was found in Apple iOS up to 6.1.2 (Smartphone Operating System). It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown code of the component IOUSBDeviceFamily Driver. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
The IOUSBDeviceFamily driver in the USB implementation in the kernel in Apple iOS before 6.1.3 and Apple TV before 5.2.1 accesses pipe object pointers that originated in userspace, which allows local users to gain privileges via crafted code.
The weakness was released 03/19/2013 by evad3rs as HT5704 as confirmed advisory (Apple Security Announce). The advisory is shared at support.apple.com. The public release was coordinated with Apple.
