The Finder in DesktopServices in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8, and 10.6 before 10.6.4, does not set the expected file ownerships during an "Apply to enclosed items" action, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via normal filesystem operations.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Apple Mac OS X Finder permissions flaw. On affected systems, a local user could bypass intended file access restrictions after Finder applied ownership changes to enclosed items incorrectly. It is not a remote compromise issue, but it matters on shared or legacy Macs where local users should be isolated. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard systems with multiple local users or shared file structures. Modern macOS versions are not identified as affected in the supplied sources. Treat this as a legacy hygiene and access-control issue. Prioritize if the organization still operates shared, unsupported Mac OS X systems containing sensitive data. It should not outrank remotely exploitable or actively exploited vulnerabilities. Mitigation focus: Apply Apple guidance from APPLE-SA-2010-06-15-1 or HT4188.; Upgrade Mac OS X 10.6 systems to 10.6.4 or later.; Remove or isolate unsupported Mac OS X 10.5.8 systems..
