TITLE

Apple iOS and Apple TV Vulnerability in the kernel that circumvents pointer restrictions

DESCRIPTION

The kernel in Apple iOS before 6.1 and Apple TV before 5.2 does not properly validate copyin and copyout arguments, which allows local users to bypass intended pointer restrictions and access locations in the first kernel-memory page by specifying a length of less than one page. Apple iOS for the iPhone, the iPod touch, and the iPad is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to gain access to potentially sensitive information. Apple iOS is an operating system developed by Apple (Apple) for mobile devices. A vulnerability exists in the kernel of Apple iOS versions prior to 6.1 and Apple TV versions prior to 5.2. The vulnerability stems from the fact that the program does not validate the copyin and copyout parameters. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 APPLE-SA-2013-01-28-1 iOS 6.1 Software Update iOS 6.1 Software Update is now available and addresses the following: Identity Services Available for: iPhone 3GS and later, iPod touch (4th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later Impact: Authentication relying on certificate-based Apple ID authentication may be bypassed Description: An error handling issue existed in Identity Services. If the user's AppleID certificate failed to validate, the user's AppleID was assumed to be the empty string. If multiple systems belonging to different users enter this state, applications relying on this identity determination may erroneously extend trust. This issue was addressed by ensuring that NULL is returned instead of an empty string. CVE-ID CVE-2013-0963 International Components for Unicode Available for: iPhone 3GS and later, iPod touch (4th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to a cross- site scripting attack Description: A canonicalization issue existed in the handling of the EUC-JP encoding, which could lead to a cross-site scripting attack on EUC-JP encoded websites. This issue was addressed by updating the EUC-JP mapping table. The checks were not being used if the length was smaller than one page. This issue was addressed through additional validation of the arguments to copyin and copyout. CVE-ID CVE-2013-0964 : Mark Dowd of Azimuth Security Security Available for: iPhone 3GS and later, iPod touch (4th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later Impact: An attacker with a privileged network position may intercept user credentials or other sensitive information Description: Several intermediate CA certificates were mistakenly issued by TURKTRUST. This issue was addressed by not allowing the incorrect SSL certificates. StoreKit Available for: iPhone 3GS and later, iPod touch (4th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later Impact: JavaScript may be enabled in Mobile Safari without user interaction Description: If a user disabled JavaScript in Safari Preferences, visiting a site which displayed a Smart App Banner would re-enable JavaScript without warning the user. This issue was addressed by not enabling JavaScript when visiting a site with a Smart App Banner. CVE-ID CVE-2013-0974 : Andrew Plotkin of Zarfhome Software Consulting, Ben Madison of BitCloud, Marek Durcek WebKit Available for: iPhone 3GS and later, iPod touch (4th generation) and later, iPad 2 and later Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: Multiple memory corruption issues existed in WebKit. These issues were addressed through improved memory handling.
