Se abordó un problema de escritura fuera de límites con una comprobación de límites mejorada. Este problema es corregido en iOS versión 15.6.1 y iPadOS versión 15.6.1, macOS Monterey versión 12.5.1 y Safari versión 15.6.1. El procesamiento de contenido web diseñado de forma maliciosa puede conllevar a una ejecución de código arbitrario. Apple presenta conocimiento de un informe que indica que este problema puede haber sido explotado activamente.

A flaw was found in webkitgtk. The vulnerability occurs due to improper input validation, leading to an out-of-bounds write. This flaw allows an attacker with network access to pass specially crafted web content files, causing arbitrary code execution.

Several 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.

Apple iOS and macOS contain an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that could allow for remote code execution when processing malicious crafted web content.
