TITLE

Apple Safari of WebKit Vulnerable to cross-site scripting

DESCRIPTION

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in WebKit in Apple Safari before 4.0.2, as used on iPhone OS before 3.1, iPhone OS before 3.1.1 for iPod touch, and other platforms, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to parent and top objects. WebKit is prone to a cross-domain scripting vulnerability. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to bypass the same-origin policy and obtain potentially sensitive information or launch spoofing attacks against other sites. Other attacks are also possible. Safari is the web browser bundled by default in the Apple family machine operating system. A remote attacker can use this vulnerability to define some content in domain A and then use top and parent to call it in domain B. 2) An error in the WebKit component when handling numeric character references can be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted web page. SOLUTION: Update to version 4.0.2. PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: 1) Reported by the vendor. 2) The vendor credits Chris Evans. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented?

This may lead to a time window, regardless of the Maximum inactivity time lock" setting, in which a person with physical access to the device is able to use the Exchange services. 3) A security issue exists in MobileMail due to deleted mails being accessible via Spotlight search. This can be exploited by malicious people with physical access to the device to disclose potentially sensitive information. 4) An unspecified error exists in the Recovery Mode command parsing. This can be exploited by a person with physical access to a device to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and e.g. gain access to a locked device. 5) A NULL pointer dereference error within the handling of SMS arrival notifications can be exploited to cause a service interruption. 6) An error in the handling of passwords in UIKit can be exploited by a person with physical access to a device to disclose a password. 7) Safari includes the user name and password in the "Referer" header, which can lead to the exposure of sensitive information. 8) Two vulnerabilities in WebKit can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks or potentially compromise a user's system. For more information see vulnerability #6 in: SA36269 SOLUTION: Update to iPhone OS 3.1 or iPhone OS for iPod touch 3.1.1 (downloadable and installable via iTunes).
