Description:
Chris Adams has reported a vulnerability in Mac OS X, which may allow malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive data like user credentials.
The problem is that the Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) silently falls back to plain-text authentication when configured to use SSH when a remote host fails to accept SSH. Also SSH is launched without host key checking allowing man-in-the-middle attacks.
The vulnerability has been reported in Apple Macintosh OS X versions 10.2 through 10.3.3.
