CVE-2008-1024


TITLE

Apple Safari fails to properly handle a file name

Trust: 0.8

sources: CERT/CC: VU#529441

DESCRIPTION

Apple Safari before 3.1.1, when running on Windows XP or Vista, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a file download with a crafted file name, which triggers memory corruption. Apple Safari is prone to a remote memory-corruption vulnerability that occurs when downloading malicious files. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. This issue affects versions prior to Apple Safari 3.1.1 running on Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista. Safari is the WEB browser bundled with the Apple family operating system by default
