CVE-2007-4686
Integer signedness error in the ttioctl function in bsd/kern/tty.c in the xnu kernel in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system shutdown) or gain privileges via a crafted TIOCSETD ioctl request.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.37%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
