Arbitrary code execution via WebKit integer overflow
Published Jun 10, 2024 · Updated Apr 2, 2026
Integer overflow in WebKit in affected Apple operating systems and Safari allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. WebKit inadequately validates an integer operation while processing attacker-controlled web content; Apple has not disclosed the affected function or calculation. Exploitation requires a user or application to process malicious web content, and no sandbox escape or system-level execution is established.
