TITLE

Apple iOS Vulnerabilities that bypass the sandbox restrictions in the kernel

DESCRIPTION

The kernel in Apple iOS before 5.1 does not properly handle debug system calls, which allows remote attackers to bypass sandbox restrictions and execute arbitrary code via a crafted program. Apple iOS for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. These issues affect the following components: CFNetwork HFS Kernel Passcode Lock Safari Siri VPN Successfully exploiting these issues may allow attackers to crash the affected device, bypass security restrictions, obtain sensitive information, or execute arbitrary code. Other attacks are also possible. Apple iOS is an operating system developed by Apple (Apple) for mobile devices. A vulnerability exists in the kernel of versions prior to Apple iOS 5.1. The vulnerability stems from improper handling of the debug system call. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Become a PSI 3.0 beta tester!

For more information see vulnerability #21 in: SA47843 5) A race condition error in the Passcode Lock component when handling slide to dial gestures can be exploited to bypass the Passcode Lock screen. 6) The weakness is caused due to the Private Browsing mode in Safari not properly preventing recording of visits to certain sites using the pushState or replaceState JavaScript methods. 7) An error within the Siri component when handling voice commands can be exploited to bypass the screen lock and forward an open mail message to an arbitrary recipient. 8) A format string error in the VPN component when handling racoon configuration files can be exploited to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted racoon configuration file. 9) A cross-origin error in the WebKit component can be exploited to bypass the same-origin policy and disclose a cookie by tricking the user into visiting a malicious website. 10) An error within the WebKit component when handling drag-and-drop actions can be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting attacks. 11) Multiple unspecified errors within the WebKit component can be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting attacks. 12) Some vulnerabilities are caused due to a bundled vulnerable version of WebKit. SOLUTION: Apply iOS 5.1 Software Update.
