Apple Multiple Products WebKit Out-of-Bounds Write Vulnerability (CVE-2025-24201)
Apple iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and other Apple products contain an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in WebKit that may allow maliciously crafted web content to break out of Web Content sandbox. This vulnerability could impact HTML parsers that use WebKit, including but not limited to Apple Safari and non-Apple products which rely on WebKit for HTML processing.
A remote attacker, without authentication, can achieve full data confidentiality loss, arbitrary modification of data, complete denial of service or system unavailability. Federal agencies are required to remediate by 2025-04-03 under CISA BOD 22-01.
This is a Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787) vulnerability in Apple Multiple Products. An out-of-bounds write issue was addressed with improved checks to prevent unauthorized actions. This issue is fixed in Safari 18.3.1, iOS 15.8.4 and iPadOS 15.8.4, iOS 16.7.11 and iPadOS 16.7.11, iOS 18.3.2 and iPadOS 18.3.2, iPadOS 17.7.6, macOS Sequoia 15.3.2, visionOS 2.3.2, watchOS 11.4. Maliciously crafted web content may be able to break out of Web Content sandbox. This is a supplementary fix for an attack that was blocked in iOS 17.2. (Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been exploited in an extremely sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals on versions of iOS before iOS 17.2.). Exploitation requires remote network access, low attack complexity, no authentication required, and no user interaction required.
