VAR-200407-0074

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:14

HelpViewer in Mac OS X 10.3.3 and 10.2.8 processes scripts that it did not initiate, which can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, an issue that was originally reported as a directory traversal vulnerability in the Safari web browser using the runscript parameter in a help: URI handler. A vulnerability has been reported in the default "disk://" protocol handler installed on Apple Mac OS X systems. Remote attackers may potentially use this vulnerability to create files on the local system without explicit user consent. We have not independently verified the scope of this vulnerability report. apple's Apple Mac OS X and Apple Mac OS X Server Exists in unspecified vulnerabilities.None. It has been reported that the 'help:' protocol can be invoked remotely by the Safari web browser. This could allow an attacker to craft a malicious link and entice a user to follow the link in order to execute script code via the help application. It has been reported that this issue can be exploited to execute arbitrary code with minimal user interaction. Reportedly, an attacker can exploit this issue by simply enticing a user to visit a malicious site. An attacker can also use HTML email as an attack vector to exploit this vulnerability. For example, an attacker can embed HTML into Apple Mail and send it as a link to a vulnerable user. If the user follows the link, script code will be executed. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to a vulnerable system in the context of an affected user. Other web browsers that support the 'help:' protocol may also present an attack vector for this issue

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
