This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple Safari. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the handling of Array.splice. The issue lies in the failure to ensure that an array’s length has not changed during processing of user-supplied arguments. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code within the context of the current process.
