CVE-2006-1442
The bundle API in CoreFoundation in Apple Mac OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4.6 loads dynamic libraries even if the client application has not directly requested it, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary code from an untrusted bundle.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.04%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
