A memory corruption issue was addressed with improved input validation. This issue affected versions prior to macOS Mojave 10.14.1.
Un problema de corrupción de memoria se abordó con una validación de entradas mejorada. Este problema afectaba a macOS Mojave en versiones anteriores a la 10.14.1.
This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on vulnerable installations of Apple macOS. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the AGDPClientControl service. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a memory access past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to escalate privileges to the level of the kernel.
