CVE-2016-4652

Status: ModifiedMedium (6.3)—

CoreGraphics in Apple OS X before 10.11.6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and consequently gain privileges, or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read), via unspecified vectors.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
