APPLE-SA-2009-09-09 iTunes 8.0
iTunes 8.0 is now available and addresses the following issues:
iTunes
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3634
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11
Impact: Firewall warning dialog in iTunes is misleading
Description: When the firewall is configured to block iTunes Music
Sharing and the user enables iTunes Music Sharing in iTunes, a
warning dialog is displayed which incorrectly informs the user that
unblocking iTunes Music Sharing doesn't affect the firewall's
security. Allowing iTunes Music Sharing or any other service through
the firewall inherently affects security by exposing the service to
remote entities. This update addresses the issue by refining the text
in the warning dialog. This issue does not affect systems running Mac
OS X v10.5 or later. Credit info to Eric Hall of DarkArt Consulting
Services, Inc. for reporting this issue.
iTunes
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-3636
Available for: Windows XP or Vista
Impact: A local user may gain system privileges
Description: A third-party driver provided with iTunes may trigger
an integer overflow, and could allow a local user to obtain system
privileges. Credit to Ruben Santamarta of Wintercore for reporting
this issue.
