Detail

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.

Id Description
40675 Apple Mac OS X Kernel Port Inheritance Race Condition Local Privilege Escalation

Mac OS X contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when a user obtains write access to a Mach port, and then executes a setuid binary, which allows user-controlled code to execute within the process as root. This flaw may lead to a loss of integrity.
