Description
This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Origin validation error (CVE-ID: N/A)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in IndexedDB. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted web page and exfiltrate data cross-origin.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30934)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in WebKit. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30936)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in WebKit when processing HTML content. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30951)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in WebKit when processing HTML content. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30952)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in WebKit. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted web page, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30953)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing HTML content in WebKit. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted website, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds read error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
7) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30954)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error in WebKit. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted website, trigger a type confusion error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
8) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-30984)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in WebKit. A local user can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted website, trigger a race condition and execute arbitrary code on the system.
9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45483)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in WebCore::Frame::page. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted web page, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
10) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45482)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when in WebCore::ContainerNode::firstChild. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted web page, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
11) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45481)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in WebCore::ImageBufferCairoImageSurfaceBackend::create. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
