The kernel in Apple OS X before 10.12, tvOS before 10, and watchOS before 3 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.
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.
