Description

Versions of Safari prior to 6.2.7 / 7.1.7 / 8.0.7 are reportedly affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in WebKit PDF due to improper restrictions, related to JavaScript execution, of links embedded in PDF files. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted PDF file, to disclose sensitive information from the file system, including cookies. (CVE-2015-3660)
 - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in WebKit due to improper restrictions on renaming WebSQL tables. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted website, to access WebSQL databases belonging to other websites. (CVE-2015-3727)
