CVE-2007-4703: Apple Mac OS X
High severity, CVSS 10.0. EPSS: 2.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
The Application Firewall in Apple Mac OS X 10.5 does not prevent a root process from accepting incoming connections, even when "Block incoming connections" has been set for its associated executable, which might allow remote attackers or local root processes to bypass intended access restrictions.
