Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-5188)

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The Screen Lock implementation in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9, when hibernation and autologin are enabled, does not require a password for a transition out of hibernation, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain access by visiting an unattended workstation in the hibernating state.
