Description

A type confusion issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in iOS 15.7.4 and iPadOS 15.7.4, iOS 16.3.1 and iPadOS 16.3.1, macOS Ventura 13.2.1, Safari 16.3. Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited. A vulnerability was found in WebKitGTK. This issue occurs when processing maliciously crafted web content in WebKit. This may, in theory, allow a remote attacker to create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger type confusion, and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
