CVE

CVE-2008-1589

TITLE

Multiple PHP XML-RPC implementations vulnerable to code injection

DESCRIPTION

Safari on Apple iPhone before 2.0 and iPod touch before 2.0 misinterprets a menu button press as user confirmation for visiting a web site with a (1) self-signed or (2) invalid certificate, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof web sites. A vulnerability in a common PHP extension module could allow a remote attacker to execute code on a vulnerable system. Safari is a web browser provided by Apple. Safari installed in iPod touch and iPhone accepts a self-signed or invalid server cerficate without the user's explicit concent when connecting via SSL/TLS. According to Apple, "When Safari accesses a website that uses a self-signed or invalid certificate, it prompts the user to accept or reject the certificate. If the user presses the menu button while at the prompt, then on the next visit to the site, the certificate is accepted with no prompt." Hiromitsu Takagi reported this vulnerability to IPA. JPCERT/CC coordinated with the vendor under Information Security Early Warning Partnership.This vulnerability could be exploited to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack. As a result, this may lead to the disclosure of sensitive information. Apple iPhone and iPod touch are prone to multiple remote vulnerabilities: 1. A vulnerability that may allow users to spoof websites. 2. An information-disclosure vulnerability. 3. A buffer-overflow vulnerability. 4. Two memory-corruption vulnerabilities. Successfully exploiting these issues may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, crash the affected application, obtain sensitive information, or direct unsuspecting victims to a spoofed site; other attacks are also possible. These issues affect iPhone 1.0 through 1.1.4 and iPod touch 1.1 through 1.1.4. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bist Du interessiert an einem neuen Job in IT-Sicherheit?
