An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.12.1 is affected. The issue involves the Thunderbolt component. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted app.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
