Descriptions

DiskManagementTool in the DiskManagement.framework 92.29 on Mac OS X 10.4.8 does not properly validate Bill of Materials (BOM) files, which allows attackers to gain privileges via a BOM file under /Library/Receipts/, which triggers arbitrary file permission changes upon execution of a diskutil permission repair operation.

DiskManagementTool en el DiskManagement.framework 92.29 de Mac OS X 10.4.8 no valida adecuadamente archivos de Factura de Materiales (Bill of Materials o BIM), lo cual permite a los atacantes obtener privilegios mediante un archivo BOM bajo /Library/Receipts/, que dispara cambios de permisos de archivo de su elección cuando se ejecuta una operación de reparación de permisos de la utilidad de discos (diskutil permission repair).
