DESCRIPTION:
David Vieira-Kurz has discovered a vulnerability in Apple iOS, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct spoofing attacks.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error within Safari when
opening a new window using "window.open()", which can be exploited to
display arbitrary content while showing the URL of a trusted web site
in the address bar.

The vulnerability is confirmed in iOS version 5.1 (9B176) on iPhone 4
and 4th generation iPod touch. Other versions and devices may also be
affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not navigate to sensitive pages via untrusted web pages.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
David Vieira-Kurz, MajorSecurity.
