DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Apple Numbers for iOS,

can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow, which may allow
execution of arbitrary code.

2) An error when processing Excel files can be exploited to corrupt
memory resulting in values from the file being treated as function
pointers via a specially crafted Excel record.
