Apple · Macos X · CVE-2008-1575
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Apple Mac OS X versions prior to 10.5.3
**Description**
The issue is related to an unspecified vulnerability in the Apple Type Services (ATS) server, allowing user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted embedded font in a PDF document. This is due to memory corruption that occurs during printing.
**Recommendations**
For Apple Mac OS X versions prior to 10.5.3, update to version 10.5.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of crafted embedded fonts in PDF documents until the update is applied. Restrict access to printing functions to minimize the risk of exploitation.
