It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2007-6261 exists.\n\nAffected product: Apple Mac Os X. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6261/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6261/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-6261","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6261/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-6261","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mhcr-j4x3-h5xc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mac OS X kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can cause a denial of service via infinite loop in the Mach-O loader by executing a crafted binary.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mac_os_x","vendor":"apple"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-189","name":null}],"description":"Integer overflow in the load_threadstack function in the Mach-O loader (mach_loader.c) in the xnu kernel in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.5.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted Mach-O binary.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2007-12-04","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2007-12-04","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"4689","stars":null,"title":"Apple Mac OSX xnu 1228.0 - 'mach-o' Local Kernel Denial of Service (PoC)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6261","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:mac_os_x","products":["apple:mac_os_x"],"type":"integer_overflow","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6262"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6260"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-12-06","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2014-7169","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2014-6271","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-09-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PHP-CGI Query String Parameter","id":"CVE-2012-1823","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2012-05-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Unspecified","id":"CVE-2021-30713","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-09-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2019-8526","kev_date_added":"2023-04-17","published":"2019-12-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple OS X Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2015-1130","kev_date_added":"2022-02-10","published":"2015-04-10"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Apple macOS Out-of-Bounds Read","id":"CVE-2022-22674","kev_date_added":"2022-04-04","published":"2022-05-26"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can cause a denial of service via infinite loop in the Mach-O loader by executing a crafted binary.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6261/"}
