'Description' => %q{  
A heap overflow in IOHIKeyboardMapper::parseKeyMapping allows kernel memory  
corruption in Mac OS X before 10.10. By abusing a bug in the IORegistry, kernel  
pointers can also be leaked, allowing a full kASLR bypass.  
  
Tested on Mavericks 10.9.5, and should work on previous versions.  
  
The issue has been patched silently in Yosemite.
