Apple Safari Subframe Same Origin Policy Violation Vulnerability

Apple Safari is prone to a vulnerability that allows attackers to violate the same-origin policy. This issue occurs because the application fails to properly enforce the same-origin policy for subframe access.

An attacker may create a malicious webpage that can access the properties of another domain. This may allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information or launch other attacks against a user of the browser.

Safari 3 for both Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS X platforms is vulnerable to this issue.
