CVE-2010-1847
The kernel in Apple Mac OS X 10.6.x before 10.6.5 does not properly perform memory management associated with terminal devices, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.35%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
