Descriptions

WebKitGTK and WPE WebKit prior to version 2.24.1 are vulnerable to address bar spoofing upon certain JavaScript redirections. An attacker could cause malicious web content to be displayed as if for a trusted URI. This is similar to the CVE-2018-8383 issue in Microsoft Edge.

WebKitGTK y WPE WebKit versiones anteriores a 2.24.1 permite la suplantación de la barra de direcciones en determinadas redirecciones de JavaScript. Un atacante puede hacer que el contenido web malicioso se muestre como si se tratara de una URL de confianza. Esto es similar a la edición CVE-2018-8383 en Microsoft Edge.
