CVE-2008-0729


TITLE

Apple iPhone of Mobile Safari Service disruption in (DoS) Vulnerabilities

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2008-002710

DESCRIPTION

Mobile Safari on Apple iPhone 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion and device crash) via certain JavaScript code that constructs a long string and an array containing long string elements, possibly a related issue to CVE-2006-3677. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. Apple iPhone is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue by enticing an unsuspecting user to view a maliciously crafted webpage. Successful attacks cause a kernel panic, crashing the device. Given the nature of this issue, remote code execution may also be possible, but this has not been confirmed. iPhone 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 are affected; other versions may also be vulnerable. This vulnerability may be related to CVE-2006-3677
