Description Vincent Danen 2010-05-26 18:18:27 UTC
A double free issue exists in WebKit's handling of event listeners in SVG documents. Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution. This issue is addressed through improved handling of SVG documents.
