An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.3 is affected. Safari before 10.1 is affected. tvOS before 10.2 is affected. The issue involves the "WebKit" component. It allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted web site.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

  • The vulnerability is a use-after-free in JSC::B3::Procedure::resetReachability within Apple WebKit's JavaScriptCore JIT compiler (FTL/DFG pipeline). Trigger occurs via crafted web content that causes the JIT compiler thread to free B3 Value objects (via JSC::B3::Procedure::deleteOrphans) while they remain accessible, leading to memory corruption.
  • Exploitation requires processing maliciously crafted web content; network-level detection should flag delivery of JavaScript payloads that contain tight numeric loops designed to trigger JIT tier-up (OSR entry) in WebKit-based browsers.
  • ·The exploit PoC targets a debug/ASan build of WebKit (JavaScriptCore.framework built with AddressSanitizer). Behavior and exploitability may differ on release builds without ASan instrumentation.
  • ·The vulnerability affects multiple Apple platforms (iOS < 10.3, Safari < 10.1, tvOS < 10.2) and also the WebKitGTK package in Debian (fixed in webkit2gtk 2.14.6-1). Detection and patching scope must cover all affected platforms.
