    Updated:2010-06-07
    Summary:Apple Safari is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking when handling of images with an embedded ColorSync profile. By persuading a victim to visit a Web site containing a specially-crafted image with an embedded ColorSync profile, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges or cause the browser to crash.
