WebKit in Apple Safari before 5.0.1 on Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.6 and Windows, and before 4.1.1 on Mac OS X 10.4; and webkitgtk before 1.2.6; does not properly handle dynamic modification of a text node, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted HTML document.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2010-1783 is an old WebKit memory corruption flaw affecting legacy Safari and WebKitGTK. A malicious web page could crash the browser or potentially run code. Business urgency is mainly for organizations still operating unsupported legacy browsers, old Mac OS X versions, Windows Safari, or Linux applications linked to vulnerable WebKitGTK. Exposure is most likely on legacy endpoints running Safari before 5.0.1 on Mac OS X 10.5-10.6 or Windows, Safari before 4.1.1 on Mac OS X 10.4, or Linux WebKitGTK before 1.2.6. Modern environments are unlikely to be exposed unless old software remains in use. Treat as high priority only where legacy WebKit remains present. For current standard desktops, this is mostly a legacy hygiene issue. Any confirmed vulnerable browser or embedded WebKit use should be removed or patched because the impact includes possible remote code execution. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Safari to the fixed Apple versions or later.; Update WebKitGTK to 1.2.6 or the vendor-patched package.; Apply relevant Linux distribution security advisories for WebKitGTK..
