APPLE-SA-2010-09-08-1 iOS 4.1 for iPhone and iPod touch
WebKit
CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1770
Available for: iOS 2.0 through 4.0.2 for iPhone 3G and later,
iOS 2.1 through 4.0.2 for iPod touch (2nd generation) and later
Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an
unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: A type checking issue exists in WebKit's handling of
text nodes. Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an
unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This
issue is addressed through improved type checking. Credit to wushi of
team509, working with TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative for
reporting this issue.
WebKit
CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1421
Available for: iOS 2.0 through 4.0.2 for iPhone 3G and later,
iOS 2.1 through 4.0.2 for iPod touch (2nd generation) and later
Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may change the
contents of the clipboard
Description: A design issue exists in the implementation of the
JavaScript execCommand function. A maliciously crafted web page can
modify the contents of the clipboard without user interaction. This
issue is addressed by only allowing clipboard commands to be executed
if initiated by the user. Credit: Apple.
WebKit
CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1422
Available for: iOS 2.0 through 4.0.2 for iPhone 3G and later,
iOS 2.1 through 4.0.2 for iPod touch (2nd generation) and later
Impact: Interacting with a maliciously crafted website may result in
unexpected actions on other sites
Description: An implementation issue exists in WebKit's handling of
keyboard focus. If the keyboard focus changes during the processing
of key presses, WebKit may deliver an event to the newly-focused
frame, instead of the frame that had focus when the key press
occurred. A maliciously crafted website may be able to manipulate a
user into taking an unexpected action, such as initiating a purchase.
This issue is addressed by preventing the delivery of key press
events if the keyboard focus changes during processing. Credit to
Michal Zalewski of Google, Inc. for reporting this issue.
WebKit
CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1771
Available for: iOS 2.0 through 4.0.2 for iPhone 3G and later,
iOS 2.1 through 4.0.2 for iPod touch (2nd generation) and later
Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an
unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution
Description: A use after free issue exists in WebKit's handling of
fonts. Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an
unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This
issue is addressed through improved handling of fonts. Credit: Apple.
WebKit
CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1764
Available for: iOS 2.0 through 4.0.2 for iPhone 3G and later,
iOS 2.1 through 4.0.2 for iPod touch (2nd generation) and later
Impact: Visiting a website that redirects form submissions may lead
to an information disclosure
Description: A design issue exists in WebKit's handling of HTTP
redirects. When a form submission is redirected to a website that
also does a redirection, the information contained in the submitted
form may be sent to the third site. This issue is addressed through
improved handling of HTTP redirects. Credit to Marc Worrell of
WhatWebWhat for reporting this issue.
