DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Apple Safari, which
can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially
sensitive information, conduct cross-site scripting and spoofing
attacks, and compromise a user's system.
For more information:
SA43582
1) An error in the WebKit component when handling redirects during
HTTP Basic Authentication can be exploited to disclose the
credentials to another site.
This may be related to:
SA40110
2) An error in the WebKit component when handling the Attr.style
accessor can be exploited to inject an arbitrary Cascading Style
Sheet (CSS) into another document.
3) A type checking error in the WebKit component when handling cached
resources can be exploited to poison the cache and prevent certain
resources from being requested.
4) An error in the WebKit component when handling HTML5 drag and drop
operations across different origins can be exploited to disclose
certain content to another site.
5) An error in the tracking of window origins within the WebKit
component can be exploited to disclose the content of files to a
remote server.
6) Input passed to the "window.console._inspectorCommandLineAPI"
property while browsing using the Web Inspector is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 5.0.4.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 5.0.4.
