WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 5.1 and iTunes before 10.6, 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-2012-03-07-1 and APPLE-SA-2012-03-07-2.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old WebKit flaw in Apple iOS before 5.1 and iTunes before 10.6. A malicious website could trigger memory corruption, potentially causing code execution or an application crash. Business urgency is mainly for legacy device and software inventories. Exposure is likely limited to unmanaged or legacy Apple endpoints still running iOS earlier than 5.1 or iTunes earlier than 10.6. Modern supported Apple environments are unlikely to be exposed, but inventories should confirm this. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item with high impact if found. Prioritize confirmation over emergency response unless vulnerable Apple versions are still in use. Mitigation focus: Identify any iOS devices below 5.1.; Identify any iTunes installations below 10.6.; Upgrade affected Apple software where still present..
