Google discloses three severe vulnerabilities in Apple OS X - CNET

Google's Project Zero security team revealed the existence this week of three vulnerabilities with high severity that have yet to be fixed in Apple's OS X operating system. Although each of the flaws requires an attacker to have access to a targeted Mac, they could all contribute to a successful attempt to elevate privilege levels and take over a machine. The first flaw, "OS X networkd "effective_audit_token" XPC type confusion sandbox escape," involves circumvention of commands in the network system and may be mitigated in OS X Yosemite, but there is no clear explanation of whether this is the case.

The second vulnerability documents "OS X IOKit kernel code execution due to NULL pointer dereference in IntelAccelerator. " Each vulnerability, as with any disclosed by the Project Zero team, includes a proof-of-concept exploit.
