TITLE

Safari of feed: URL Processing cross-site scripting vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Safari before 3.2.3, and 4 Public Beta, on Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.7 and Windows allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted feed: URL. Apple Safari is prone to multiple input-validation vulnerabilities. An attacker can exploit these issues by enticing an unsuspecting victim to visit a malicious website. Successfully exploiting these issues will allow the attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the local security zone. This may allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information that can aid in further attacks; other consequences may also occur. These issues affect versions prior to Safari 3.2.3. Safari is the web browser bundled by default in the Apple operating system. I. II. Impact The impacts of these vulnerabilities vary. Potential consequences include arbitrary code execution, sensitive information disclosure, denial of service, or privilege escalation. III. These and other updates are available via Software Update or via Apple Downloads. IV.

For more information: SA31384 2) A boundary error in the handling of Compact Font Format (CFF) fonts in Apple Type Services can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when specially crafted document is downloaded or viewed. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. 3) A vulnerability in BIND can potentially be exploited by malicious people to conduct spoofing attacks. For more information: SA33404 4) An error in the parsing of Set-Cookie headers in CFNetwork can result in applications using CFNetwork sending sensitive information in unencrypted HTTP requests. 5) An unspecified error in the processing of HTTP headers in CFNetwork can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when visiting a malicious web site. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. 6) Multiple errors exist in the processing of PDF files in CoreGraphics, which can be exploited to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted PDF file. 7) An integer underflow error in the processing of PDF files in CoreGraphics can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when specially crafted PDF files is opened. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. 8) Multiple vulnerabilities in the processing of JBIG2 streams within PDF files in CoreGraphics can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. For more information: SA34291 9) Multiple vulnerabilities in cscope can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. For more information: SA34978: 10) A boundary error in the handling of disk images can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a specially crafted disk image is mounted. 11) Multiple unspecified errors in the handling of disk images can be exploited to cause memory corruptions when a specially crafted disk image is mounted. Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #10 and #11 allows execution of arbitrary code. 12) Multiple vulnerabilities in enscript can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system. For more information: SA13968 SA32137 13) Multiple vulnerabilities in the Flash Player plugin can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. For more information: SA34012 14) An error in Help Viewer when loading Cascading Style Sheets referenced in URL parameters can be exploited to invoke arbitrary AppleScript files. 15) A vulnerability exists due to Help Viewer not validating that full paths to HTML documents are within registered help books, which can be exploited to invoke arbitrary AppleScript files. Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #14 and #15 allows execution of arbitrary code. 16) An error in iChat can result in AIM communication configured for SSL to be sent in plaintext. 17) An error in the handling of certain character encodings in ICU can be exploited to bypass filters on websites that attempt to mitigate cross-site scripting. 18) Some vulnerabilities in IPSec can be exploited by malicious users and malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service). For more information: SA31450 SA31478 19) Multiple vulnerabilities in Kerberos can be exploited by malicious people to potentially disclose sensitive information, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), or potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
