Directory Services in Apple Mac OS X 10.0.2, 10.0.3, 10.2.8, 10.3.2 and Apple Mac OS X Server 10.2 through 10.3.2 accepts authentication server information from unknown LDAP or NetInfo sources as provided by a malicious DHCP server, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

Format string vulnerability in Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) daemon (pppd) 2.4.0 for Mac OS X 10.3.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary pppd process data, including PAP or CHAP authentication credentials, to gain privileges.

The arplookup function in FreeBSD 5.1 and earlier, Mac OS X before 10.2.8, and possibly other BSD-based systems, allows remote attackers on a local subnet to cause a denial of service (resource starvation and panic) via a flood of spoofed ARP requests.

Finder in Mac OS X 10.2.8 and earlier sets global read/write/execute permissions on directories when they are dragged (copied) from a mounted volume such as a disk image (DMG), which could cause the directories to have less restrictive permissions than intended.

A "potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing" for Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1) recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope recipients, has unknown consequences.

The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.

The screen saver in MacOS X allows users with physical access to cause the screen saver to crash and gain access to the underlying session via a large number of characters in the password field, possibly triggering a buffer overflow.

DirectoryServices in MacOS X trusts the PATH environment variable to locate and execute the touch command, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands by modifying the PATH to point to a directory containing a malicious touch program.

Mac OS X before 10.2.5 allows guest users to modify the permissions of the DropBox folder and read unauthorized files.

Apple File Protocol (AFP) in Mac OS X before 10.2.4 allows administrators to log in as other users by using the administrator password.

Multiple buffer overflows in Cyrus SASL library 2.1.9 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via (1) long inputs during user name canonicalization, (2) characters that need to be escaped during LDAP authentication using saslauthd, or (3) an off-by-one error in the log writer, which does not allocate space for the null character that terminates a string.

The Sun RPC functionality in multiple libc implementations does not provide a time-out mechanism when reading data from TCP connections, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang).
