Buffer overflow in PSNormalizer in Mac OS X 10.4.11 and 10.5.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application termination) and execute arbitrary code via a PostScript file with a crafted bounding box comment.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
