Dr_IDE – Camino 2.0.2 & Safari 4.0.5 DoS PoC
Dr_IDE discovered a Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability in Camino 2.0.2 and Safari 4.0.5. The vulnerability is triggered when a user visits a malicious website containing a script that calls the history.go() function in an infinite loop. The impact of the vulnerability is reduced because the user must either have popup blocker off, or accept popups.
Mitigation:
Disable popup blocker or accept popups.
