Title: Month of Apple Bugs
Post by: don on January 01, 2007, 11:44:03 PM
Following in the footsteps of projects such as Month of Browser Bugs, we now have MoABs. This time it's to show that Mac Heads shouldn't be grinning too much. Not only does Steve Jobs have trouble with stock options, but vulnerabilities should be a concern as well.

Check out the new project at:

its a user-level exploit aka code will run with user's permissions so not that potent of an attack.
