DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Apple Safari for Mac
OS X, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting and spoofing attacks, disclose sensitive
information, bypass certain security restrictions, and compromise a
user's system.
1) An error when handling "feed:" URLs can be exploited to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.
2) An access control error within the handling of the "feed:" URLs
can be exploited to upload arbitrary files to a server by tricking
the user to visiting a malicious site.
3) An error within the autocomplete feature can be exploited to
bypass the attribute and autocomplete passwords.
4) An error when handling the HTTP "Content-Disposition" header can
be exploited to open an attachment without showing the "Open" dialog
prompt and conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
5) Multiple errors exist due to a bundled vulnerable version of
WebKit.

and drop events can be exploited to bypass the same-origin policy and
disclose certain text by tricking the user into visiting a malicious
website.
8) A cross-origin error in the WebKit component when handling drag
and drop events can be exploited to bypass the same-origin policy and
