==========================
The proof of concept has been tested on an iPhone4, iPhone4S, iPad2 and
iPad3 running iOS 5.1
Description
=============
"Mobile Safari is web browser for Apple's iOS."
More Details
=============
David Vieira-Kurz has discovered some vulnerabilities in Apple Mobile
Safari based on AppleWebkit/534.46 running on iOS 5.1.
The weakness is caused due to an error within the handling of URLs when
using javascript's window.open() method.
This can be exploited to potentially trick users into supplying
sensitive information to a malicious web site,
because information displayed in the address bar can be constructed in a
certain way,
which may lead users to believe that they're visiting another web site
than the displayed web site.
Steps to reproduce
=============
1) Visit http://majorsecurity.net/html5/ios51-demo.html with Safari on
iOS 5.1
2) click the "demo" button
3) Safari will open a new window with "http://www.apple.com" in the
adress bar,
but in fact "http://www.apple.com" is being displayed inside an iframe
within
the host http://www.majorsecurity.net
4) Safari's adress bar is showing "http://www.apple.com" which makes the
user believe he/she is currently
visiting Apple.com while he's still on the attacker's website .
Proof of Concept
=============
A proof-of-concept code is available here:
http://majorsecurity.net/html5/ios51-demo.html
Solution
=============
Users should upgrade to a newer version as far as the vendor has
supplied a patch.
