Descriptions

The Page Loading implementation in WebKit in Apple iOS before 9.3 and Safari before 9.1 mishandles HTTP responses with a 3xx (aka redirection) status code, which allows remote attackers to spoof the displayed URL, bypass the Same Origin Policy, and obtain sensitive cached information via a crafted web site.

La implementación Page Loading en WebKit en Apple iOS en versiones anteriores a 9.3 y Safari en versiones anteriores a 9.1 no gestiona correctamente las respuestas HTTP con un código de estado 3xx (también conocido como redireccionamiento), lo que permite a atacantes remotos suplantar la URL visualizada, eludir la Same Origin Policy y obtener información sensible de la cache a través de un sitio web manipulado.

WebKitGTK+ versions prior to 2.10.5 suffers from memory corruption, code execution, missing restriction, and denial of service vulnerabilities.
