An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-4591 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apple Webkit. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4591/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4591/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-4591","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4591/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-4591","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-4591","GHSA-528c-rrj8-7mch","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-4591"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apple WebKit browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can access the local filesystem due to improper handling of location variables in WebKit, affecting iOS, Safari, and tvOS users.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apple","cpe":[{"product":"webkit","vendor":"apple"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"WebKit in Apple iOS before 9.3.3, Safari before 9.1.2, and tvOS before 9.2.2 mishandles the location variable, which allows remote attackers to access the local filesystem via unspecified vectors.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4591","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:webkit","products":["apple:webkit"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4592"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4590"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-07-22","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1290","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-03-11"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1386","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1760","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-19"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0647","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-02-18"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0659","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-02-18"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4588","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-07-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4589","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-07-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can access the local filesystem due to improper handling of location variables in WebKit, affecting iOS, Safari, and tvOS users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4591/"}
