Multiple Vulnerabilities in Apple Products Could Allow for Arbitrary Code Execution OVERVIEW: Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Apple Products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Safari is a web browser developed by Apple. iOS is a mobile operating system for mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iPadOS is the successor to iOS 12 and is a mobile operating system for iPads. macOS Ventura is the 19th and current major release of macOS macOS Monterey is the 18th and release of macOS. macOS Big Sur is the 17th release of macOS. tvOS is the operating system for the Apple TV based on Mac OS X. watchOS is the mobile operating system for Apple Watch and is based on the iOS operating system. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

A vulnerability has been discovered in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile which could allow for unauthorized access to specific API paths. Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile is a mobile management software engine that enables IT to set policies for mobile devices, applications and content. If successfully exploited, an attacker could gain unauthorized access to the database, potentially accessing users’ personally identifiable information such as names and phone numbers. Additionally, the attacker can potentially make configuration changes to the server, including creating an administrative account that can make further changes to a vulnerable system.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Citrix products, the most severe of which could allow for remote code execution.

Adobe ColdFusion is a commercial web-application development platform designed to build and deploy web applications. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

A vulnerability has been discovered in Apple products, which could allow for arbitrary code execution. iOS is a mobile operating system for mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iPadOS is the successor to iOS 12 and is a mobile operating system for iPads. macOS Ventura is the 19th and current major release of macOS Safari is a graphical web browser developed by Apple. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

A vulnerability has been discovered in Fortinet FortiOS and FortiProxy, which could allow for remote code execution. FortiOS is the Fortinet’s proprietary Operation System which is utilized across multiple product lines. FortiProxy is a secure web gateway that attempts to protects users against internet-borne attacks, and provides protection and visibility to the network against unauthorized access and threats. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for remote code execution in the context of the affected service account. Depending on the privileges associated with the service account an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Service accounts that are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

A vulnerability has been discovered in Cisco SD-WAN vManage which could allow for security mechanism bypass. Cisco SD-WAN vManage is a centralized network management console for controlling, configuring and monitoring devices in a network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to bypass security mechanisms on the targeted host, granting them to gain read permissions or limited write permissions to the configuration of an affected Cisco SD-WAN vManage instance.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe Products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Adobe InDesign is a desktop publishing and page layout designing software. Adobe ColdFusion is a commercial rapid web-application development computing platform. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Microsoft products, the most severe of which could allow for remote code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
