Descriptions

Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.8 does not properly share file descriptors over local sockets, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by placing file descriptors in messages sent to a socket that has no receiver, related to a "synchronization issue."

Apple Mac OS X v10.5 anterior a v10.5.8 no comparte correctamente los descriptores de archivos sobre sockets locales, lo cual permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (caida del sistema) mediante la colocación de descriptores de archivo en los mensajes enviados a un socket que no tiene el receptor, relaccionado con una "incidencia de sincronización".
