VAR-200305-0065
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:35Mac OS X before 10.2.5 allows guest users to modify the permissions of the DropBox folder and read unauthorized files. A vulnerability has been discovered in Apple MacOS X 10.2.4 and earlier. The problem occurs when various file sharing services are enabled. The issue occurs in the privileges granted to 'guest' users, when accessing shared folders. Due to a design error, it may be possible for an unprivileged user to change the permissions of a write-only directory, effectively revealing its contents. Information obtained through exploiting this vulnerability could aid an attacker in launching further attacks against a target system. Mac OS X is an operating system used on Mac machines, based on the BSD system. An issue in the way Mac OS X handles file-sharing services could allow remote attackers to gain access to sensitive file information. Using this information can help attackers further attack the system
