var-201609-0279
Vulnerability from variot
The Date & Time Pref Pane component in Apple OS X before 10.12 mishandles the .GlobalPreferences file, which allows attackers to discover a user's location via a crafted app. Apple Mac OS X is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. 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. Date & Time Pref Pane is one of the time and date display panel components. The vulnerability stems from the program's improper handling of .GlobalPreferences files. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability with the help of a specially crafted application to discover the user's location
