Descriptions

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.13.1 is affected. The issue involves the "APFS" component. It does not properly restrict the DMA mapping time of FileVault decryption buffers, which allows attackers to read cleartext APFS data via a crafted Thunderbolt adapter.

Se ha descubierto un problema en algunos productos Apple. Se han visto afectadas las versiones de macOS anteriores a la 10.13.1. El problema afecta al componente "APFS". No restringe correctamente el tiempo de asignación DMA de los búfers de descifrado FileVault, lo que permite que atacantes lean datos APFS en texto claro mediante un adaptador Thunderbolt manipulado.

macOS High Sierra 10.13.1, Security Update 2017-001 Sierra, Security Update 2017-004 El Capitan are now available and address TLS weaknesses, issues in Apache, and many more vulnerabilities.
