A large number of security issues were discovered in the WebKit browser and JavaScript engines. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could exploit a variety of issues related to web browser security, including cross-site scripting attacks, denial of service attacks, and arbitrary code execution.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Google Chrome Releases reports :

[117226] [117230] Critical CVE-2011-3046: UXSS and bad history navigation. Credit to Sergey Glazunov.

The mobile device is running a version of iOS that is older than version 5.1.1.  Version 5.1.1 contains numerous security-related fixes for the following vulnerabilities :

  - Attackers can use a vulnerability in WebKit to perform     cross-site scripting attacks, possibly leaking data such     as cookies, user information, and passwords.
    (CVE-2011-3046, CVE-2011-3056)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability in WebKit could     allow a malicious site to run code on the host iOS     device giving the attacker access to critical data on     the phone.(CVE-2012-0672)

  - Vulnerabilities in Safari can allow malicious sites to     spoof the address in the address bar of the browser.
    This attack allows an attacker to redirect victims to a     malicious site without the user's ability to notice.
    (CVE-2012-0674)

The version of Apple Safari installed on the remote Mac OS X host is earlier than 5.1.7.  It is, therefore, potentially affected by several issues :

   - Two unspecified errors exist that can allow malicious     sites to perform cross-site scripting attacks.
    (CVE-2011-3046, CVE-2011-3056)

  - An unspecified memory corruption error exists that can     allow malicious sites to crash the application or     potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-0672)

  - A state-tracking issue exists that can allow malicious     sites to populate HTML form values of other sites with     arbitrary data. (CVE-2012-0676)

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 17.0.963.78 and is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities:

  - The application does not properly handle history     navigation.

  - An unspecified universal cross-site scripting issue     exists.

By exploiting these vulnerabilities in combination, an attacker could bypass Chrome's sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the target machine as demonstrated in March 2012 at Google's Pwnium competition.

The version of Safari installed on the remote host reportedly is affected by several issues :

  - Two unspecified errors exist that can allow malicious     sites to perform cross-site scripting attacks.
    (CVE-2011-3046, CVE-2011-3056)

  - An unspecified memory corruption error exists that can     allow malicious sites to crash the application or     potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-0672)

  - A state-tracking issue exists that can allow malicious     sites to populate HTML form values of other sites with     arbitrary data. (CVE-2012-0676)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201203-19 (Chromium: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Chromium. Please review       the CVE identifiers and release notes referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted web       site using Chromium, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary       code with the privileges of the process, a Denial of Service condition,       Universal Cross-Site Scripting, or installation of an extension without       user interaction.
    A remote attacker could also entice a user to install a specially       crafted extension that would interfere with browser-issued web requests.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

According to its banner, the remote Apple iOS device is missing a security update.  Versions of Apple iOS 3.0 through 5.1.0 are affected by vulnerabilities within the following components :

 - Safari
 - WebKit

Versions of Google Chrome earlier than 17.0.963.78 are potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The application does not properly handle history navigation.

  - An unspecified universal cross-site scripting issue exists.

By exploiting these vulnerabilities in combination, an attacker could bypass  Chrome's sandbox and execute arbitrary code on the target machine as demonstrated in March 2012 at Google's Pwnium competition.

The remote host has Safari installed. 

Versions of Safari earlier than 5.1.7 are reportedly affected by several issues :

  - Two unspecified errors that can allow malicious sites to perform cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2011-3046, CVE-2011-3056)

  - An unspecified memory corruption error exists that can allows malicious sites to crash the application or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-0672)

  - A state-tracking issue exists that can allow malicious sites to populate HTML form values of other sites with arbitrary data. (CVE-2012-0676)
