Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:05

Integer overflow in Terminal in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted size value in a CSI[4 xterm resize escape sequence that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. Apple Mac OS X is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability affecting the Terminal application. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the vulnerable application. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into using Terminal to connect to a remote system (such as opening a telnet: URL), causing a denial of service or executing arbitrary commands.

-- Vulnerability Details: This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple Terminal. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page.

The specific flaw exists in the handling of 'CSI[4' xterm window resizing escape code. When a very low negative value for (x, y) size is set, an integer overflow occurs resulting in a memory corruption.

-- Vendor Response: Apple has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details can be found at:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3549

-- Disclosure Timeline: 2009-05-06 - Vulnerability reported to vendor 2009-06-02 - Coordinated public release of advisory

-- Credit: This vulnerability was discovered by: * James King, TippingPoint DVLabs

    "data": "Integer overflow in Terminal in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted size value in a CSI[4 xterm resize escape sequence that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. Apple Mac OS X is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability affecting the Terminal application. \nAn attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the vulnerable application. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into using Terminal to connect to a remote system (such as opening a telnet: URL), causing a denial of service or executing arbitrary commands. \nFor further product information on the TippingPoint IPS, visit:\n\n    http://www.tippingpoint.com\n\n-- Vulnerability Details:\nThis vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on\nvulnerable installations of Apple Terminal. User interaction is required\nto exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious\npage. \n\nThe specific flaw exists in the handling of \u0027CSI[4\u0027 xterm window\nresizing escape code. When a very low negative value for (x, y) size is\nset, an integer overflow occurs resulting in a memory corruption. \n\n-- Vendor Response:\nApple has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More\ndetails can be found at:\n\nhttp://support.apple.com/kb/HT3549\n\n-- Disclosure Timeline:\n2009-05-06 - Vulnerability reported to vendor\n2009-06-02 - Coordinated public release of advisory\n\n-- Credit:\nThis vulnerability was discovered by:\n    * James King, TippingPoint DVLabs\n",

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.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
