VAR-201510-0079
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 11:18The EFI component in Apple OS X before 10.11 allows physically proximate attackers to modify firmware during the EFI update process by inserting an Apple Ethernet Thunderbolt adapter with crafted code in an Option ROM, aka a "Thunderstrike" issue. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-4498. This vulnerability "Thunderstrike" Is called a problem. Supplementary information : CWE Vulnerability type by CWE-17: Code ( code ) Has been identified. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code with system privileges, gain admin privileges, bypass security restrictions, cause denial-of-service conditions, bypass the authentication mechanism, obtain sensitive information, and perform other attacks. These issues affect OS X prior to 10.11. EFI is one of the firmware upgrade interface components

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
