Description

sys/openbsd/stack_protector.c in libc in Apple iOS 6.1.3 and Mac OS X 10.8.x does not properly parse the Apple strings employed in the user-space stack-cookie implementation, which allows local users to bypass cookie randomization by executing a program with a call-path beginning with the stack-guard= substring, as demonstrated by an iOS untethering attack or an attack against a setuid Mac OS X program.

Affected configurations

• apple iphone os (<= 8.2) • apple mac os x (<= 10.10.4) • apple watchos (<= 1.0.1) • apple iphone os 6.1.3 • apple mac os x 10.8.0 • apple mac os x 10.8.1 • apple mac os x 10.8.2 • apple mac os x 10.8.3 • apple mac os x 10.8.4
