Vulnerability from variot
WindowServer in Apple OS X before 10.12 allows local users to obtain root access via vectors that leverage "type confusion," a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-4709. This vulnerability CVE-2016-4709 Is a different vulnerability. Supplementary information : CWE Vulnerability type by CWE-704: Incorrect Type Conversion or Cast ( Bad type conversion or cast ) Has been identified. 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 CoreGraphics module. The issue lies in the failure to properly validate user-supplied data which can result in a type confusion condition. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges under the context of WindowServer. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code, gain sensitive information, cause denial-of-service conditions, bypass security restrictions, and perform unauthorized actions. This may aid in other attacks. These issues are fixed in: Apple macOS 10.12. WindowServer is one of the Window service components
