CVE-2011-0149

high

Description

WebKit, as used in Apple iTunes before 10.2 on Windows, does not properly parse HTML elements associated with document namespaces, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via vectors related to a "dangling pointer" and iTunes Store browsing, a different vulnerability than other CVEs listed in APPLE-SA-2011-03-02-1.
