Descriptions

Event Monitor in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 does not properly validate hostnames of SSH clients, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (arbitrary client blacklisting) via a crafted DNS PTR record, related to a "plist injection issue."

El Monitor de Eventos (Event Monitor) de Apple Mac OS X en versiones anteriores a la v10.6.3 no valida apropiadamente los nombres de equipo (hostnames) de los clientes SSH, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (añadido a lista negra de un cliente de su elección) a través de un registro DNS PTR modificado. Relacionado con la inyección en plist.
