Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Safari before 3.2.3, and 4 Public Beta, on Apple Mac OS X 10.5 before 10.5.7 and Windows allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted feed: URL.

The version of Safari installed on the remote Windows host is earlier than 3.2.3.  Such versions are potentially affected by several issues :

  - A heap-based buffer overflow issue in the libxml library     when handling long entity names could lead to a crash or     arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2008-3529)

  - Multiple input validation issues exist in Safari's     handling of 'feed:' URLs, which could be abused to     execute arbitrary JavaScript code. (CVE-2009-0162)

  - A memory corruption issue in WebKit's handling of     SVGList objects could lead to arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2009-0945)

  - The browser uses the HTTP Host header to determine the     context of a 4xx/5xx CONNECT response from a proxy server.
    This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to execute     arbitrary script code in the context of a legitimate server,     circumventing the browser's same-origin policy. (CVE-2009-2058)

The remote host is running a version of Mac OS X 10.5.x that is prior to 10.5.7. 

Mac OS X 10.5.7 contains security fixes for the following products :

  - Apache
  - ATS
  - BIND
