Descriptions

The Airport driver for certain Orinoco based Airport cards in Darwin kernel 8.8.0 in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.8, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an 802.11 probe response frame without any valid information element (IE) fields after the header, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

El controlador Aeropuerto para cierto Orinoco basados en tarjetas de aeropuerto en Darwin kernel 8.8.0 en Apple Mac OS X 10.4.8, y posiblemente otras versiones, permite a un atacante remoto ejecutar código de su elección a través de una vetana de respuesta de prueba 802.11 sin ningún campo elemento de validación de información (IE) después de la cabecera, lo cual dispara un desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila.
