Vulnerability Spotlight: Remote code execution vulnerability in Apple Safari
Summary: Cisco Talos's Marcin Towalski discovered a remote code execution vulnerability in the Fonts feature of Apple Safari version 13.0.3, where a specially crafted HTML page triggers a type confusion leading to memory corruption and possibly arbitrary code execution. An attacker must trick the user into visiting a malicious web page to trigger it, and Talos worked with Apple under its coordinated disclosure policy to resolve the issue and make an update available.
What's compelling: The exploit path is a single malicious web page opened in Safari, so the user's browsing habit is the only control standing between the attacker and code execution on the device.
