2013-001
OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.3 and Security Update 2013-001 is now
available and addresses the following:
Apache
Available for: Mac OS X 10.6.8, Mac OS X Server 10.6.8,
OS X Lion v10.7 to v10.7.5, OS X Lion Server v10.7 to v10.7.5,
OS X Mountain Lion v10.8 to v10.8.2
Impact: An attacker may be able to access directories that are
protected with HTTP authentication without knowing the correct
credentials
Description: A canonicalization issue existed in the handling of
URIs with ignorable Unicode character sequences. This issue was
addressed by updating mod_hfs_apple to forbid access to URIs with

CVE-ID
CVE-2013-0966 : Clint Ruoho of Laconic Security
CoreTypes
Available for: OS X Lion v10.7 to v10.7.5,
OS X Lion Server v10.7 to v10.7.5,
OS X Mountain Lion v10.8 to v10.8.2
Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website could allow a Java
Web Start application to be launched automatically even if the Java
plug-in is disabled
Description: Java Web Start applications would run even if the Java
plug-in was disabled. This issue was addressed by removing JNLP files
from the CoreTypes safe file type list, so the Web Start application
will not be run unless the user opens it in the Downloads directory.
CVE-ID
CVE-2013-0967
International Components for Unicode
Available for: Mac OS X 10.6.8, Mac OS X Server 10.6.8,
OS X Lion v10.7 to v10.7.5, OS X Lion Server v10.7 to v10.7.5,

Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to a cross-
site scripting attack
Description: A canonicalization issue existed in the handling of the
EUC-JP encoding, which could lead to a cross-site scripting attack on
EUC-JP encoded websites. This issue was addressed by updating the
EUC-JP mapping table.
CVE-ID
CVE-2011-3058 : Masato Kinugawa
Identity Services
Available for: OS X Lion v10.7 to v10.7.5,
OS X Lion Server v10.7 to v10.7.5,
OS X Mountain Lion v10.8 to v10.8.2
Impact: Authentication relying on certificate-based Apple ID
authentication may be bypassed
Description: An error handling issue existed in Identity Services.
If the user's AppleID certificate failed to validate, the user's
AppleID was assumed to be the empty string. If multiple systems
belonging to different users enter this state, applications relying
on this identity determination may erroneously extend trust. This
issue was addressed by ensuring that NULL is returned instead of an
empty string.
CVE-ID
CVE-2013-0963
ImageIO
Available for: Mac OS X 10.6.8, Mac OS X Server 10.6.8,

Impact: Maliciously crafted or compromised applications may be able
to determine addresses in the kernel
Description: An information disclosure issue existed in the handling
of APIs related to kernel extensions. Responses containing an
OSBundleMachOHeaders key may have included kernel addresses, which
may aid in bypassing address space layout randomization protection.
This issue was addressed by unsliding the addresses before returning
them.

Available for: OS X Mountain Lion v10.8 to v10.8.2
Impact: An attacker with keyboard access may modify the system
configuration
Description: A logic error existed in VoiceOver's handling of the
Login Window, whereby an attacker with access to the keyboard could
launch System Preferences and modify the system configuration. This
issue was addressed by preventing VoiceOver from launching
applications at the Login Window.

Available for: OS X Mountain Lion v10.8 to v10.8.2
