Medium

Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apple iOS versions prior to 9

Description The issue is related to the WebKit component in Apple iOS, which does not properly restrict access to sensitive information. This allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about the browser history, mouse movement, or network traffic via crafted JavaScript code. The estimated number of potentially affected devices worldwide is not specified. There is no information about real-world incidents where this issue was exploited.

Recommendations For Apple iOS versions prior to 9, update to a version 9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of JavaScript code from untrusted sources until a patch is available. Avoid using the Performance API times in crafted JavaScript code to minimize the risk of exploitation.
