TITLE

WebKit Vulnerable to cross-site request forgery

DESCRIPTION

The implementation of Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) in WebKit, as used in Apple Safari before 4.0.4 and Google Chrome before 3.0.195.33, includes certain custom HTTP headers in the OPTIONS request during cross-origin operations with preflight, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks via a crafted web page. Apple Safari Used in etc. WebKit is prone to a vulnerability that lets attackers bypass the same-origin policy. Attackers can exploit this issue to access resources from another origin in the context of another domain. This can facilitate cross-site request-forgery attacks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented?

For more information see vulnerability #4 in: SA36701 2) An error exists when handling an "Open Image in New Tab", "Open Image in New Window", or "Open Link in New Tab" shortcut menu action performed on a link to a local file. This can be exploited to load a local HTML file and disclose sensitive information by tricking a user into performing the affected actions within a specially crafted webpage. 3) An error exists in WebKit when sending "preflight" requests originating from a page in a different origin. 4) Multiple errors in WebKit when handling FTP directory listings on Windows can be exploited to disclose sensitive information, cause a crash, or potentially execute arbitrary code. 5) An error in WebKit when handling an HTML 5 Media Element on Mac OS X can be exploited to bypass remote image loading restrictions via e.g. HTML-formatted emails. NOTE: Some errors leading to crashes, caused by the included libxml2 library, have also been reported. SOLUTION: Update to version 4.0.4.
