Description:
Two vulnerabilities were reported in Mac OS X ImageIO. A remote user can cause arbitrary code to be executed on the target user's system.
A remote user can create a specially crafted TIFF or JPEG file that, when loaded by the target user, will trigger a memory corruption error and execute arbitrary code on the target system. The code will run with the privileges of the target user.
Robert Swiecki of Google Security Team reported the TIFF file vulnerability.
