Security Issues in Mac OS X
In Boston, the conference SOURCE, Dino Dai Zovi has made a demonstration on how to break the security of Apple's operating system. To make the show has used the data memory (HEAP Memory) is not sufficiently protected in order to perform the attack. This problem is currently produced in Leopard but it is anticipated that in the next version, Snow Leopard, will be resolved as data memory will be random.
So far Mac OS X is considered one of the most secure systems on the market. However this finding may be that serious attacks appear to Mac OS X.
Curiously the iPhone OS is not vulnerable to the problem described above.
