1. OS X evolves with Darwin flaws - ZDNet UK News
- news.zdnet.co.uk
- OS X evolves with Darwin flaws.
- A code audit has found that Panther contains four flaws that have come from its origins in the open source Darwin operating system.
- The flaws in Darwin affect Mac OS X version 10. 3 -- dubbed Panther -- and are caused by memory errors in the kernel, according to an advisory released by ImmunitySec, the security company that found the flaws.
- "In terms of criticalness, this kind of bug mostly affects remote systems with multiple users," said David Aitel, founder and security consultant with ImmunitySec, adding that since Mac OS X is most often used on the desktop, the flaws will not be overly important on most people's systems.
- The company originally found the flaws in June and published them to a private list of customers but did not notify Apple. It published the flaws on Monday, after presenting them at a seminar.
- Apple confirmed that it had not been told of the flaws and said it was analysing the vulnerabilities but would not elaborate.
- ImmunitySec found the flaws by analysing the publicly available source code of the Darwin operating system, which implements a variant of Unix known as BSD. Darwin forms the core of Apple's modern Mac OS X operating system, and the flaws found by the security company also affected Apple's operating system.
- The flaws include a bug in Mac OS X's SearchFS function, several kernel memory overflows and a logic bug in the AT command, which is used to schedule tasks by the operating system. ...
