2008-11-21 CVE-2008-5183 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
cupsd in CUPS 1.3.9 and earlier allows local users, and possibly remote attackers, to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by adding a large number of RSS Subscriptions, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

2008-09-26 CVE-2008-3637 Improper Initialization vulnerability in Apple mac OS X and mac OS X Server
The Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) provider in Java on Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11, 10.5.4, and 10.5.5 uses an uninitialized variable, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted applet, related to an "error checking issue."

2008-08-01 CVE-2008-3438 Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability in Apple mac OS X
Apple Mac OS X does not properly verify the authenticity of updates, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse update, as demonstrated by evilgrade and DNS cache poisoning.

2008-03-19 CVE-2008-0063 Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products
The Kerberos 4 support in KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5kdc) does not properly clear the unused portion of a buffer when generating an error message, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, aka "Uninitialized stack values."

2007-11-15 CVE-2007-4268 Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types vulnerability in Apple mac OS X
Integer signedness error in the Networking component in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.10 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a crafted AppleTalk message with a negative value, which satisfies a signed comparison during mbuf allocation but is later interpreted as an unsigned value, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

2007-11-15 CVE-2007-3749 Improper Initialization vulnerability in Apple mac OS X
The kernel in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.10 does not reset the current Mach Thread Port or Thread Exception Port when executing a setuid program, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by creating the port before launching the setuid program, then writing to the address space of the setuid process.

2006-09-27 CVE-2006-5051 Double Free vulnerability in multiple products
Signal handler race condition in OpenSSH before 4.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code if GSSAPI authentication is enabled, via unspecified vectors that lead to a double-free.

2006-09-06 CVE-2006-4095 Reachable Assertion vulnerability in multiple products
BIND before 9.2.6-P1 and 9.3.x before 9.3.2-P1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain SIG queries, which cause an assertion failure when multiple RRsets are returned.

2004-12-03 CVE-2004-1083 Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity vulnerability in Apple products
Apache for Apple Mac OS X 10.2.8 and 10.3.6 restricts access to files in a case sensitive manner, but the Apple HFS+ filesystem accesses files in a case insensitive manner, which allows remote attackers to read .DS_Store files and files beginning with ".ht" using alternate capitalization.
