The Apache HTTP Server in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.2 enables the HTTP TRACE method, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via unspecified web client software.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue concerns Apple Mac OS X systems before 10.6.2 running Apache HTTP Server with the HTTP TRACE method enabled. A remote attacker could use that behavior with unspecified web client software to support cross-site scripting attacks. The public bundle does not provide CVSS scoring or confirmed active exploitation. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Apple Mac OS X web servers before 10.6.2 that still run Apache and allow HTTP TRACE. Modern systems are unlikely to be affected unless they preserve this old behavior or remain unpatched. Prioritize this for legacy asset cleanup and externally exposed server review. It is not KEV-listed and lacks public active-exploitation evidence in the bundle, but unsupported Mac OS X web servers can carry broader operational risk. Mitigation focus: Apply Apple Mac OS X 10.6.2 or later guidance where applicable.; Inventory and retire unsupported Mac OS X web servers.; Review vendor guidance before changing TRACE behavior manually..
