Descriptions

Mail in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5, when an IPv6 SMTP server is used, does not properly initialize memory, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash), or obtain sensitive information (memory contents) in opportunistic circumstances, by sending an e-mail message.

Mail en Apple Mac OS X versiones anteriores a 10.5, cuando un servidor IPv6 SMTP es usado, no inicializa correctamente la memoria, lo que podría permitir a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo de aplicación) u obtener información confidencial (contenido de la memoria ) en circunstancias oportunistas, mediante el envío de un mensaje de correo electrónico.
