Description Vincent Danen 2010-09-08 18:00:47 UTC
A memory corruption issue exists in WebKit's rendering of HTML object outlines.
Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an unexpected application
termination or arbitrary code execution. This issue is addressed through
improved memory management. Credit to Jose A. Vazquez of spa-s3c.blogspot.com
for reporting this issue.
