Descriptions

WebKitGTK and WPE WebKit prior to version 2.24.1 failed to properly apply configured HTTP proxy settings when downloading livestream video (HLS, DASH, or Smooth Streaming), an error resulting in deanonymization. This issue was corrected by changing the way livestreams are downloaded.

WebKitGTK y WPE WebKit en las versiones anteriores a 2.24.1 no aplican correctamente la configuración del proxy HTTP al descargar vídeo en directo (HLS, DASH o Smooth Streaming), lo que provocó un error de desanonimización. Este problema se corrigió cambiando la forma en que se descargan las transmisiones en directo.

A large number of security issues were discovered in the WebKitGTK+ Web and JavaScript engines. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could exploit a variety of issues related to web browser security, including cross-site scripting attacks, denial of service attacks, and arbitrary code execution.
