Possible Faults:

US-CERT is aware of reports of possible flaws in the Application-Based Firewall in Mac OS X Leopard. According to these reports, users may be misinformed of the status of their firewall rule set, thus placing users with listening network services at an increased risk.

Users are urged to exercise caution when relying on the firewall rules for access control.

US-CERT will provide additional information as it becomes available.
