Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple Mac OS X versions 10.3.9 through 10.4.7

Description The issue allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in memory corruption and a crash, via a crafted PICT image. This is due to the improper handling of a certain unsupported QuickDraw operation by the QuickDraw Manager.

Recommendations For Apple Mac OS X versions 10.3.9 through 10.4.7, consider avoiding the use of crafted PICT images until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the handling of unsupported QuickDraw operations to minimize the risk of exploitation.
