Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Apple MacOS X up to 10.10.2 (Operating System). This affects an unknown part of the component ImageIO. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does
not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the
properties that are required to process the data safely and
correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
ImageIO in Apple OS X before 10.10.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted .sgi file.
The weakness was released 04/08/2015 by Ole Andre Vadla Ravnas (lokihardt@ASRT) with Apple as HT204659 as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is shared at support.apple.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2015-1139 since 01/16/2015. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation.
