Heap-based buffer overflow in CoreGraphics in Apple Safari before 3.2 on Windows, in iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.2.1, and in iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.2.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.37%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
