CFNetwork in Apple iOS before 5.0.1 and Mac OS X 10.7 before 10.7.2 does not properly parse URLs, which allows remote attackers to trigger visits to unintended web sites, and transmission of cookies to unintended web sites, via a crafted (1) http or (2) https URL.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Apple CFNetwork URL parsing flaw. A crafted HTTP or HTTPS URL could cause a device or Mac to visit a different site than intended and send cookies to the wrong site. The business concern is session or privacy exposure on obsolete Apple platforms, not confirmed current mass exploitation. Exposure is mainly legacy Apple environments running iOS earlier than 5.0.1 or Mac OS X 10.7 earlier than 10.7.2. Modern managed fleets are unlikely to be exposed unless they retain unsupported devices or archived systems. Treat this as a legacy hygiene issue. Prioritize only if obsolete Apple systems remain in business use, handle authenticated web sessions, or connect to sensitive services. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected iOS devices to 5.0.1 or later where supported.; Upgrade affected Mac OS X 10.7 systems to 10.7.2 or later.; Retire unsupported Apple devices that cannot receive the relevant security updates..
