The AutoFill feature in Apple Safari 2.0.4 does not properly verify that all automatically populated form fields are visible to the user, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, such as usernames and passwords, via input fields of zero width, a variant of CVE-2006-6077.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Safari 2.0.4 could fill saved login details into form fields the user could not see. A malicious webpage could abuse this to collect sensitive AutoFill data, including usernames and passwords, if a user visited it with affected settings. Exposure appears limited to Apple Safari 2.0.4 users with AutoFill storing sensitive values. The source bundle provides no CPEs, no broader version list, and no confirmed affected operating systems. Treat as a legacy credential-exposure risk. It is not a broad modern emergency based on the provided evidence, but any remaining affected systems should be cleaned up because the impact involves credential theft. Mitigation focus: Check Apple or vendor guidance for Safari 2.0.4 remediation details.; Disable Safari AutoFill for sensitive fields on any remaining affected systems.; Remove saved usernames and passwords from affected Safari profiles..
