Denial of service via WebKit memory handling
Published Feb 10, 2025 · Updated Jun 3, 2026
Memory-handling flaw in WebKit in affected Apple products allows remote attackers to interrupt web content processing via crafted content. Apple identifies improper memory handling in WebKit but has not published the faulty function, memory operation, or triggering input structure. A user must process attacker-controlled web content; the reported consequence is denial of service, with no confidentiality or integrity impact.
