Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in WebKit in Apple Safari before 6.0 allows remote attackers to spoof domain names in URLs, and possibly conduct phishing attacks, by leveraging the availability of IDN support and Unicode fonts to construct unspecified homoglyphs.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue could let a malicious site make a URL appear to belong to another domain by using similar-looking Unicode characters. The main business risk is phishing against users of older Apple Safari versions before 6.0. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Apple Safari installations before version 6.0. The provided affected-product metadata is incomplete and lists no CPEs, so asset validation must rely on browser inventory. Treat this as a legacy browser risk. It is not proven actively exploited here, but domain spoofing can support convincing phishing, so any remaining old Safari usage should be retired. Mitigation focus: Update Apple Safari/WebKit using the relevant Apple security guidance.; Prioritize removal of Safari versions earlier than 6.0.; Check Apple HT5400 and HT5503 for applicable platform-specific update details..
