WebKit, as used in Apple Safari before 6.1.4 and 7.x before 7.0.4, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted web site, a different vulnerability than other WebKit CVEs listed in APPLE-SA-2014-05-21-1.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - WebKit: Improper handling of data types from event objects (CVE-2010-4205)

  - webkitgtk: heap-based buffer overflow (WSA-2015-0001) (CVE-2014-1303)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in WebKit in Apple Safari before 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.6 and     Windows, and before 4.1 on Mac OS X 10.4, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a     denial of service (application crash) via vectors involving HTML document subtrees. (CVE-2010-1761)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - webkitgtk: heap-based buffer overflow (WSA-2015-0001) (CVE-2014-1303)

  - webkitgtk: Processing web content may lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2023-40414)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in Google Chrome before 28.0.1500.71 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to the handling of input.
    (CVE-2013-2871)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201601-02 (WebKitGTK+: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in WebKitGTK+. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attack can use multiple vectors to execute arbitrary code or       cause a denial of service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This update fixes the following security issues :

  - Fix SSL connection issues with some websites after the     POODLE vulnerability fix.

  - Fix a crash when loading flash plugins.

  - Fix build on GNU Hurd - Fix build on OS X.

  - Fix documentation of     webkit_print_operation_get_page_setup().

  - Security fixes: CVE-2014-1344, CVE-2014-1384,     CVE-2014-1385, CVE-2014-1386, CVE-2014-1387,     CVE-2014-1388, CVE-2014-1389, CVE-2014-1390,     CVE-2015-2330. (bnc#879607, bnc#871792)

  - Pass autoreconf and enable libtool BuildRequires: Needed     for above patch since it touches the buildsystem.

  - Bugs fixed: boo#871792, boo#879607 and boo#879607.

Webkit release team reports :

This release fixes the following security issues : CVE-2014-1344, CVE-2014-1384, CVE-2014-1385, CVE-2014-1386, CVE-2014-1387, CVE-2014-1388, CVE-2014-1389, CVE-2014-1390.

The version of Apple iTunes on the remote host is prior to version 12.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to the included version of WebKit. The errors could lead to application crashes or arbitrary code execution.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Apple iTunes installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 12.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities due to the included version of WebKit. The errors could lead to application crashes or arbitrary code execution.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Versions of iTunes earlier than 12.0.1 are missing updates that patch memory corruption vulnerabilities within WebKit, as well as a patch that fixes a man-in-the-middle vulnerability that affects encrypted connections to the iTunes Store via iTunes. The most severe of these vulnerabilites can result in arbitrary remote code execution or unexpected application termination.

The remote host has Safari installed that is older than 6.1.4 or 7.0.4, and is thus unpatched for the following WebKit vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple memory corruption issues within WebKit, which were addressed through improved memory handling (CVE-2013-2875, CVE-2013-2927, CVE-2014-1323, CVE-2014-1324, CVE-2014-1326, CVE-2014-1327, CVE-2014-1329, CVE-2014-1330, CVE-2014-1331, CVE-2014-1333, CVE-2014-1334, CVE-2014-1335, CVE-2014-1336, CVE-2014-1337, CVE-2014-1338, CVE-2014-1339, CVE-2014-1341, CVE-2014-1342, CVE-2014-1343, CVE-2014-1344, CVE-2014-1731)
 - An issue with the way unicode characters in the URL are handled could result in bypassing the browser's origin check (CVE-2014-1346)

The version of Apple Safari installed on the remote Mac OS X host is a version prior to 6.1.4 or 7.0.4. It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities exist in     WebKit that could lead to unexpected program     termination or arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2013-2875, CVE-2013-2927, CVE-2014-1323,     CVE-2014-1324, CVE-2014-1326, CVE-2014-1327,     CVE-2014-1329, CVE-2014-1330, CVE-2014-1331,     CVE-2014-1333, CVE-2014-1334, CVE-2014-1335,     CVE-2014-1336, CVE-2014-1337, CVE-2014-1338,     CVE-2014-1339, CVE-2014-1341, CVE-2014-1342,     CVE-2014-1343, CVE-2014-1344, CVE-2014-1731)

  - An error exists related to unicode character handling     in URLs that could allow an attacker send an incorrect     'postMessage' origin that could allow a security bypass.
