DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Apple Safari, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
and spoofing attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, disclose
certain sensitive information, and compromise a user's system.

1) An error within the International Domain Name (IDN) support
feature can be exploited to spoof a URL containing look-alike
characters and trick a user into visiting a malicious website.

2) The Private Browsing feature does not properly prevent recording
of visits to certain sites implementing the pushState or replaceState
JavaScript methods.

3) Multiple errors in the WebKit component can be exploited to
conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

4) An error within the WebKit component when handling drag-and-drop
actions can be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

5) Multiple errors within the WebKit component can be exploited to
corrupt memory.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow execution of
arbitrary code.

6) An error within the cookie policy does not enforce the "Block
Cookies" preference properly and can be exploited to set cookies from
third-party sites.

7) An error in the WebKit component when handling redirects during
HTTP Authentication can be exploited to disclose the credentials to
another site.
