Several vulnerabilities were discovered on WebKitGTK+.
CVE-2016-1723
Versions affected: WebKitGTK+ before 2.10.5.
Credit to Apple.
WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 9.2.1 and Safari before 9.0.3,
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial
of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, a different
vulnerability than CVE-2016-1725 and CVE-2016-1726.
CVE-2016-1724
Versions affected: WebKitGTK+ before 2.10.5.
Credit to Apple.
WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, Safari before 9.0.3, and
tvOS before 9.1.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web
site, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-1727.
CVE-2016-1725
Versions affected: WebKitGTK+ before 2.10.5.
Credit to Apple.
WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 9.2.1 and Safari before 9.0.3,
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial
of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, a different
vulnerability than CVE-2016-1723 and CVE-2016-1726.
CVE-2016-1726
Versions affected: WebKitGTK+ before 2.10.8.
Credit to Apple.
WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 9.2.1 and Safari before 9.0.3,
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial
of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, a different
vulnerability than CVE-2016-1723 and CVE-2016-1725.
CVE-2016-1727
Versions affected: WebKitGTK+ before 2.10.5.
Credit to Apple.
WebKit, as used in Apple iOS before 9.2.1, Safari before 9.0.3, and
tvOS before 9.1.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web
site, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-1724.
CVE-2016-1728
Versions affected: WebKitGTK+ before 2.10.5.
Credit to an anonymous researcher coordinated via Joe Vennix.
The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) implementation in Apple iOS before
9.2.1 and Safari before 9.0.3 mishandles the "a:visited button"
selector during height processing, which makes it easier for remote
attackers to obtain sensitive browser-history information via a
crafted web site.
We recommend updating to the last stable version of WebKitGTK+. It is
the best way of ensuring that you are running a safe version of
WebKitGTK+. Please check our website for information about the last
