descriptionAccording to its banner, the remote Apple TV device is a version prior to 7.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities : - Multiple memory corruption issues exist related to the included version of WebKit that allow application crashes or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-4452, CVE-2014-4462) - A state management issue exists due to improperly handling overlapping segments in Mach-O executable files. A local user can exploit this issue to execute unsigned code. (CVE-2014-4455) - A remote code execution issue exists due to improper validation of metadata fields in IOSharedDataQueue objects.
