Descriptions

Integer overflow in HFS in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.7 allows local users to read arbitrary (1) HFS, (2) HFS+, or (3) HFS+J files via a crafted F_READBOOTSTRAP ioctl call.

Desbordamiento de enteros en HFS en Apple Mac OS X antes de v10.6.7 permite a usuarios locales leer archivos (1) HFS, (2) HFS +, o (3) HFS + J por medio de una llamada F_READBOOTSTRAP ioctl manipulada.

VSR identified a vulnerability in HFS+, a filesystem implemented in the OS X XNU kernel. HFS+ is the default filesystem in use on many installations of the Mac OS X operating system. By exploiting this vulnerability, an unprivileged user with local access to a machine using HFS+ may be able to read raw filesystem data, bypassing file permissions and resulting in information disclosure.
