VAR-201607-0368
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-13 19:45ImageIO in Apple OS X before 10.11.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted EXR image with B44 compression. 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. Apple Mac OS X 10.9.5, 10.10.5 and 10.11 through 10.11.5 are vulnerable. ImageIO is one of the static methods used to perform common image I/O operations
