What is this?
Hi, my name is Tom Lazar and I'm a Plone and Zope developer based in Berlin, Germany and this is my personal and professional (no big difference, really...) website.
 

DoS vulnerability in OS X Server Admin

Filed Under:

Security Alert

Haven't seen this anywhere else yet (except at macnews.de), so might as well post it here.

According to the bulletin, there is a buffer-overflow vulnerability in the code that listens on port 660 (i.e. for Workspace Manager and Server Admin) that can lead to a server restart or, even worse to execution of arbitrary code.

I've shut down port 660 on all my publicly reachable systems...
