Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →The vulnerability is a Use-After-Free in WebCore::AccessibilityRenderObject::handleAriaExpandedChanged, triggered by manipulating aria-expanded attribute on an image element inside a visibility:collapse div combined with execCommand('bold') in an error event handler. ↗
- →Exploit PoC uses a div with CSS 'visibility: collapse' containing an img element, with an onerror event handler that calls execCommand bold, removes -webkit-appearance, and sets aria-expanded to false — monitor for this pattern in web content. ↗
- →Crash originates in WebCore::jsElementPrototypeFunctionSetAttribute within WebCore.framework — look for WebKit process crashes involving setAttribute calls on accessibility-related attributes. ↗
- →The UAF is triggered via WebCore::ImageLoader::dispatchPendingErrorEvent — exploitation requires an image load error event to fire, which can be detected as an img src error combined with aria attribute manipulation. ↗
- ·Affected platforms are iOS before 10.3.3, Safari before 10.1.2, iCloud for Windows before 6.2.2, iTunes for Windows before 12.6.2, and tvOS before 10.2.2 — detection should be scoped to unpatched versions of these products. ↗
- ·On Debian-based Linux systems (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie), the issue is resolved in webkit2gtk version 2.16.3-2. ↗
