Description

This security bulletin contains information about 20 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32908)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in MediaLibrary. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32925)

The vulnerability allows a local application to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the Wi-Fi subsystem. A local application can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.


3) Spoofing attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32891)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect processing of frames on the webpage within WebKit. A remote attacker can spoof page content.


4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32912)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in WebKit. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds read and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


5) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32888)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing HTML content in WebKit. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32886)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing web content in WebKit. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted website, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


7) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-36690)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a segmentation fault in the sqlite3 command-line component when processing SQL queries in the idxGetTableInfo() function. A local user can pass a specially crafted SQL query and crash the application.


8) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32881)

The vulnerability allows a local application to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to improperly imposed security restrictions in Sandbox. A local application can modify protected parts of the filesystem.

9) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32879)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper state management in Notifications. An attacker with physical access to device can access contacts from the lock screen.


10) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32914)

The vulnerability allows a local application to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the OS kernel. A local application can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.

11) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42795)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Accelerate Framework. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted image file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


12) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32911)

The vulnerability allows a local application to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the OS kernel. A local application can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.



13) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32866)

The vulnerability allows a local application to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the OS kernel. A local application can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
