Descriptions

WebCore on Apple Mac OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4.10, as used in Safari, does not properly parse HTML comments in TITLE elements, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and bypass some XSS protection schemes by embedding certain HTML tags within an HTML comment.

En WebCore en Apple Mac OS X versiones 10.3.9 y 10.4.10, tal como es usado en Safari, no analiza de forma apropiada los comentarios HTML en elementos TITLE, lo que permite a los atacantes remotos conducir ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) y omitir algunos esquemas de protección XSS insertando ciertas etiquetas HTML dentro de un comentario HTML.
