Description

WebKit in Apple Safari before 6.2.8, 7.x before 7.1.8, and 8.x before 8.0.8, as used in iOS before 8.4.1 and other products, does not properly perform taint checking for CANVAS elements, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain sensitive image data by leveraging a redirect to a data:image resource.

Solution(s)

  • apple-safari-upgrade-6_2_8
  • apple-safari-upgrade-7_1_8
  • apple-safari-upgrade-8_0_8
  • apple-safari-windows-uninstall
