Format string vulnerability in PackageKit in Apple Mac OS X 10.6.x before 10.6.6 allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors related to interaction between Software Update and distribution scripts.
The product uses a function that accepts a format string as an argument, but the format string originates from an external source.
