Descriptions

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.2 is affected. Safari before 10.0.2 is affected. iCloud before 6.1 is affected. iTunes before 12.5.4 is affected. The issue involves the "WebKit" component. It allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted web site.

Se ha descubierto un problema en ciertos productos Apple. iOS en versiones anteriores a 10.2 está afectado. Safari en versiones anteriores a 10.0.2 está afectado. iCloud en versiones anteriores a 6.1 está afectado. iTunes en versiones anteriores a 12.5.4 está afectado. El problema involucra al componente "WebKit". Esto permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria y caída de la aplicación) a través de un sito web manipulado.

This vulnerability allows local 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 RenderObject objects. By performing actions in JavaScript an attacker can cause a pointer to be reused after it has been freed. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
