TITLE

Apple Safari In EV Certificate processing vulnerabilities

DESCRIPTION

Apple Safari before 4.0 does not properly check for revoked Extended Validation (EV) certificates, which makes it easier for remote attackers to trick a user into accepting an invalid certificate. These issues affect versions prior to Safari 4.0 running on Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 and 10.5.7, Windows XP, and Windows Vista. NOTE: This BID is being retired because the following individual records have been created to better document issues previously mentioned in this BID: 35321 WebKit XML External Entity Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35320 WebKit HTML 5 Standard Method Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability 35325 WebKit JavaScript DOM User After Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35322 WebKit 'Canvas' HTML Element Image Capture Remote Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35319 WebKit 'document.implementation' Cross Domain Scripting Vulnerability 35271 WebKit DOM Event Handler Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 35317 WebKit Subframe Click Jacking Vulnerability 35318 WebKit CSS 'Attr' Function Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35315 WebKit JavaScript 'onload()' Event Cross Domain Scripting Vulnerability 35310 WebKit 'Attr' DOM Objects Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35311 WebKit JavaScript Exception Handling Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35283 WebKit XSLT Redirects Remote Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35284 WebKit 'Document()' Function Remote Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35309 WebKit JavaScript Garbage Collector Memory Corruption Vulnerability 35270 WebKit 'XMLHttpRequest' HTTP Response Splitting Vulnerability 35272 WebKit Drag Event Remote Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35308 Apple Safari CoreGraphics TrueType Font Handling Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 33276 Multiple Browser JavaScript Engine 'Math.Random()' Cross Domain Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35352 Apple Safari for Windows Reset Password Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35346 Apple Safari for Windows Private Browsing Cookie Data Local Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35353 Safari X.509 Extended Validation Certificate Revocation Security Bypass Vulnerability 35350 WebKit Java Applet Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35340 WebKit Custom Cursor and Adjusting CSS3 Hotspot Properties Browser UI Element Spoofing Vulnerability 35348 WebKit Web Inspector Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability 35349 WebKit Web Inspector Page Privilege Cross Domain Scripting Vulnerability 35351 Apple Safari 'open-help-anchor' URI Handler Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35334 WebKit SVG Animation Elements User After Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 35333 WebKit File Enumeration Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35327 WebKit 'Location' and 'History' Objects Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability 35332 WebKit 'about:blank' Security Bypass Vulnerability 35330 WebKit JavaScript Prototypes Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability 35331 WebKit 'Canvas' SVG Image Capture Remote Information Disclosure Vulnerability 35328 WebKit Frame Transition Cross Domain Scripting Vulnerability 35339 Apple Safari Windows Installer Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability 35344 Apple Safari CFNetwork Script Injection Weakness 35347 Apple Safari CFNetwork Downloaded Files Information Disclosure Vulnerability. Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to perform man-in-the-middle attacks by impersonating trusted webservers. This will aid in further attacks. NOTE: This issue was previously covered in BID 35260 (Apple Safari Prior to 4.0 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities), but has been assigned its own record to better document it. Safari is the web browser bundled by default in the Apple family machine operating system. A bug in Safari's handling of EV certificates could lead to bypassing revocation checks, which could allow pages to load without issuing a revoked EV certificate warning. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented?

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. 2) Some vulnerabilities in FreeType can potentially be exploited to compromise a user's system. For more information: SA34723 3) Some vulnerabilities in libpng can potentially be exploited to compromise a user's system. For more information: SA33970 4) An error in the processing of external entities in XML files can be exploited to read files from the user's system when a users visits a specially crafted web page. Other vulnerabilities have also been reported of which some may also affect Safari version 3.x. SOLUTION: Upgrade to Safari version 4, which fixes the vulnerabilities.
