AI Insight

LLM-synthesized narrative grounded in this CVE's description and references.

WebKit in Apple iOS before 7 allows XSS via drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste operations, requiring user assistance to trigger the flaw.

Vulnerability

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities exist in WebKit in Apple iOS versions prior to 7. The flaw is triggered when a user performs a drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste operation on content that includes malicious web script or HTML. The affected versions are iOS 6.x and earlier, as listed in the Apple advisory [1].

Exploitation

An attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to drag and drop or copy and paste specially crafted content—for example, by tricking the user into selecting and copying text on a malicious web page. No authentication is required beyond the user interacting with the content; the attack is user-assisted [1].

Impact

Successful exploitation allows the attacker to inject arbitrary web script or HTML into the context of the WebKit rendered page, leading to potential information disclosure, session hijacking, or other client-side attacks. The attacker achieves the same privileges as the user running the browser [1].

Mitigation

Apple addressed these vulnerabilities in iOS 7, released on September 18, 2013. Users should update their devices to iOS 7 or later via the device's Software Update mechanism. No workaround is available for unpatched versions, and the issue is not listed on the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog [1].
