Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple Safari version 3.1.1

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This can be triggered by a specific link, file:///%E2, which leads to an out-of-bounds access, possibly due to a NULL pointer dereference.

Recommendations For Apple Safari version 3.1.1, consider avoiding the use of links that may trigger out-of-bounds access until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, be cautious when clicking on links from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
