Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2006-5710 (CCN-29965)

Assigned:2006-11-01
Published:2006-11-01
Updated:2017-07-20
Summary:The Airport driver for certain Orinoco based Airport cards in Darwin kernel 8.8.0 in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.8, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an 802.11 probe response frame without any valid information element (IE) fields after the header, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
