CVE-2011-0161

TITLE

plural Apple Product WebKit In CSS Token sequence insertion vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

WebKit, as used in Apple Safari before 5.0.4 and iOS before 4.3, does not properly handle the Attr.style accessor, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and inject Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequences via a crafted web site. WebKit is prone to a cross-domain script-injection vulnerability. Successful exploits will allow attackers to execute arbitrary script code within the context of the affected application. WebKit is a set of open source web browser engines jointly developed by companies such as KDE, Apple (Apple), and Google (Google), and is currently used by browsers such as Apple Safari and Google Chrome. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Get a tax break on purchases of Secunia Solutions!
