Buffer underflow in CoreGraphics in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PDF document.

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X that is older than 10.9.3, and is thus missing security-related fixes for the following components:

  - CFNetwork HTTPProtocol
  - CoreServicesUIAgent
  - FontParser
  - Heimdal Kerberos
  - ImageIO
  - Intel Graphics Driver
  - IOKit Kernel
  - Kernel
  - Power Management
  - Ruby
  - Security
  - Secure Transport
  - Window Server

Note that successful exploitation of the most serious issues could result in arbitrary code execution.

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X 10.7, 10.8, or 10.9 that does not have Security Update 2014-002 applied. This update contains several security-related fixes for the following components :

  - CoreServicesUIAgent
  - FontParser
  - Heimdal Kerberos
  - ImageIO
  - Intel Graphics Driver
  - IOKit Kernel
  - Kernel
  - Power Management
  - Ruby
  - Security - Secure Transport
  - Window Server

Note that successful exploitation of the most serious issues could result in arbitrary code execution.
