Summary

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iCloud before 6.2 on Windows is affected. iTunes before 12.6 on Windows is affected. The issue involves cleartext client-certificate transmission in the "APNs Server" component. It allows man-in-the-middle attackers to track users via correlation with this certificate. <a href="http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/835.html">CWE-319: Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information</a>

    descriptionThe version of Apple iTunes running on the remote host is prior to 12.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the expat component, the most severe of which are remote code execution vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2009-3270, CVE-2009-3560, CVE-2009-3720, CVE-2012-1147, CVE-2012-1148, CVE-2012-6702, CVE-2015-1283, CVE-2016-0718, CVE-2016-4472, CVE-2016-5300) - Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the SQLite component, the most severe of which are remote code execution vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to open a specially crafted file, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2013-7443, CVE-2015-3414, CVE-2015-3415, CVE-2015-3416, CVE-2015-3717, CVE-2015-6607, CVE-2016-6153) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the APNs server component due to client certificates being transmitted in cleartext. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2017-2383) - A use-after-free error exists in the WebKit component due to improper handling of RenderBox objects. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-2463) - Multiple universal cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities exist in the WebKit component due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities, by convincing a user to visit a specially crafted web page, to execute arbitrary script code in a user
