Descriptions
WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, Safari before 9.1.1, and tvOS before 9.2.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-1854, CVE-2016-1855, and CVE-2016-1856.
WebKit, como se utiliza en Apple iOS en versiones anteriores a 9.3.2, Safari en versiones anteriores a 9.1.1 y tvOS en versiones anteriores a 9.2.1, permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) a través de una página web manipulada, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2016-1854, CVE-2016-1855 y CVE-2016-1856.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple Safari. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of ArrayBuffer objects. By triggering certain JavaScript optimizations, an attacker can force an ArrayBuffer in memory to be reused after it has been freed. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
