Happilycoded

The issue is related to the dyld component in the operating system, which is connected to errors in security settings. It allows an attacker to bypass a code-signing protection mechanism via a modified app. This can be exploited by a local attacker.

The issue is caused by a buffer overflow in the Carbon component of the Mac OS X operating system. Exploitation of this issue may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by using a specially crafted .dfont file.
