The Simple Shortcodes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via shortcodes in versions up to, and including, 1.0.20 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

CVE-2023-5566: shortcodes.php in smpl-shortcodes/tags/1.0.20/includes – WordPress Plugin Repository

The "iLeakage" attack affects all recent iPhone, iPad, and MacBook models, allowing attackers to peruse your Gmail inbox, steal your Instagram password, or scrutinize your YouTube history.

Researchers have developed a side-channel exploit for Apple CPUs, enabling sophisticated attackers to extract sensitive information from browsers.

Side-channel attacks are usually overlooked, often physical counterparts to traditional software hacks. Rather than an unsecured password or a vulnerability in a program, they take advantage of the extra information a computer system or hardware generates — in the form of sound, light, or electromagnetic radiation, for example, or in the time it takes to complete certain computations (a timing attack).

On Wednesday, four researchers — including two of those responsible for uncovering the Spectre processor vulnerability back in 2018 — published the details of such an attack, which they've named "iLeakage," affecting all recent iPhone, iPad, and MacBook models.

The researchers informed Apple of their findings on Sept. 12, 2022, according to their website, and the company has since developed a mitigation. However, it's still considered unstable, it's not enabled on devices by default, and mitigating is only possible on Macs, not mobile devices.

In comments provided to Dark Reading on background, an Apple spokesperson wrote, "This proof of concept advances our understanding of these types of threats. We are aware of the issue and it will be addressed in our next scheduled software release."

**How iLeakage Works**

iLeakage takes advantage of A- and M-series Apple silicon CPUs' capacity to perform speculative execution.

Speculative execution is a method by which modern CPUs predict tasks before they're even prompted, in order to speed up information processing. "This technique has been around for over 20 years, and today all modern CPUs use it — it significantly speeds up processing, even accounting for times it might get the anticipated instructions wrong," explains John Gallagher, vice president of Viakoo Labs.

The rub is that "cache inside the CPU holds a lot of valuable data, including what might be staged for upcoming instructions. iLeakage uses the Apple WebKit capabilities inside a browser to use JavaScript to gain access to those contents."

Specifically, the researchers used a new speculation-based gadget to read the contents of another webpage when a victim clicked on their malicious webpage.

"Alone, WebKit would not enable the cache contents to be divulged, nor would how A-Series and M-Series perform speculative execution — it's the combination of the two together that leads to this exploit," Gallagher explains.

**A Successor to Meltdown/Spectre**

"This builds on a line of attacks against CPU vulnerabilities that started around 2017 with Meltdown and Spectre," Lionel Litty, chief security architect at Menlo Security points out. "High level, you want to think about applications and processes, and trust that the operating system with help from the hardware is properly isolating these from one another," but those two exploits broke the fundamental isolation between different applications, and an application and operating system, that we tend to take for granted as users, he says.

iLeakage, then, is a spiritual successor that focuses on breaking the isolation between browser tabs.

The good news is, in their website's FAQ section, the researchers described iLeakage as "a significantly difficult attack to orchestrate end-to-end," which "requires advanced knowledge of browser-based side-channel attacks and Safari's implementation." They also noted that successful exploitation hasn't been demonstrated in the wild.

Were a capable enough attacker to come along and try it, however, this method is powerful enough to siphon just about any data users traffic online: logins, search histories, credit card details, what have you. In YouTube videos, the researchers demonstrated how their exploit could expose victims' Gmail inboxes, their YouTube watch histories, and their Instagram passwords, as just a few examples.

**iPhone Users Are Especially Affected**

Though it takes advantage of the idiosyncrasies in Safari's JavaScript engine specifically, iLeakage affects all browsers on iOS, because Apple's policies force all iPhone browser apps to use Safari's engine.

"Chrome, Firefox and Edge on iOS are simply wrappers on top of Safari that provide auxiliary features such as synchronizing bookmarks and settings. Consequently, nearly every browser application listed on the App Store is vulnerable to iLeakage," the researchers explained.

iPhone users are doubly in trouble, because the best fix Apple has released thus far only works on MacBooks (and, for that matter, only in an unstable state). But for his part, Gallagher backs Apple's ability to design an effective remediation.

"Chip-level vulnerabilities are typically hard to patch, which is why it is not surprising that there is not a fix for this right now. It will take time, but ultimately if this becomes a real exploited vulnerability a patch will likely be available," he says.

Apple has released security updates for its phones, iPads, Macs, watches and TVs.

Updates are available for these products:

*   iPhone XS and later, iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2nd generation and later, iPad Pro 10.5-inch, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation and later, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 6th generation and later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later get iOS 17.1 or iPadOS 17.1.
*   iPhone 8 and later, iPad Pro (all models), iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 5th generation and later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later get iOS 16.7.2 or iPadOS 16.7.2.
*   iPhone 6s (all models), iPhone 7 (all models), iPhone SE (1st generation), iPad Air 2, iPad mini (4th generation), and iPod touch (7th generation) get iOS 15.8 or iPadOS 15.8.
*   Macs get one of macOS Sonoma 14.1, macOS Ventura 13.6.1, macOS Monterey 12.7.1, and Safari 17.1.
*   Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K (all models) get tvOS 17.1.
*   Apple Watch Series 4 and later get watchOS 10.1.

The important vulnerabilities that have been addressed in this raft of updates are:

CVE-2023-40423, a critical vulnerability in IOTextEncryptionFamily that could allow an app to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. Arbitrary code execution means an attacker could run any commands or code of their choice on a target machine or in a target process. Kernel privileges means the attacker would have the highest level of access to all machine resources.

CVE-2023-40413, a vulnerability in Find My that could allow another to read sensitive location information.

CVE-2023-40416, a vulnerability in ImageIO which means processing an image could result in disclosure of process memory.

CVE-2023-42847, a vulnerability in Passkeys could allow an attacker to access passkeys without authentication. A passkey is a way to sign in to an app or website account, without needing to create and remember a password.

CVE-2023-42841, a vulnerability in Pro Res could allow an app to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.

CVE-2023-41982, CVE-2023-41997, and CVE-2023-41988 are a set of vulnerabilities in Siri that would allow an attacker with physical access to use Siri to access sensitive user data.

CVE-2023-40447 and CVE-2023-42852 are vulnerabilities in WebKit that could be used for arbitrary code execution. Visiting a specially crafted website could cause WebKit to perform operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer.

CVE-2023-32434 is a vulnerability that could allow an app to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited against versions of iOS released before iOS 15.7.

CVE-2023-41989 could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as root from the Lock Screen due to a vulnerability in Emoji. The issue was addressed by restricting options offered on a locked device. Root is the superuser account in many opeating systems. It is a user account for administrative purposes, and typically has the highest access rights on the system.

CVE-2023-38403 is a vulnerability in iperf3 before 3.14 that could allow peers to cause an integer overflow and heap corruption via a crafted length field. iPerf3 is a tool for active measurements of the maximum achievable bandwidth on IP networks. An integer overflow is a programming error that allows an attacker to manipulate a number the program uses in a way that might be harmful. If the number is used to set the length of a data buffer (an area of memory used to hold data), an integer overflow can lead to a buffer overflow, a vulnerability that allows an attacker to overloaded a buffer with more data than it's expecting, which creates a route for the attacker to manipulate the program. Heap corruption occurs when a program modifies the contents of a memory location outside of the memory allocated to the program. The outcome can be relatively benign and cause a memory leak, or it may be fatal and cause a memory fault, usually in the program that causes the corruption.

CVE-2023-42856 could be used to trigger unexpected app termination or arbitrary code execution due to a vulnerability in Model I/O. Model I/O provides the ability to access and manage 3D models.

CVE-2023-40404 could allow an app to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges due to a vulnerability in Networking.

CVE-2023-41977 is a vulnerability in Safari that could allow a malicious website to reveal browsing history.

Notably absent from the bugs that have been fixed is iLeakage, a sophisticated side-channel attack in the Spectre family.

The updates above may already have reached you, but it doesn't hurt to check if your device is at the latest update level. If a Safari update is available for your device, you can get it by updating or upgrading your iPhone or iPad or your Mac.

Update now! Apple patches a raft of vulnerabilities

A group of academics has devised a novel side-channel attack dubbed iLeakage that exploits a weakness in the A- and M-series CPUs running on Apple iOS, iPadOS, and macOS devices, enabling the extraction of sensitive information from the Safari web browser.

Data Security / Vulnerability

A group of academics has devised a novel side-channel attack dubbed **iLeakage** that exploits a weakness in the A- and M-series CPUs running on Apple iOS, iPadOS, and macOS devices, enabling the extraction of sensitive information from the Safari web browser.

"An attacker can induce Safari to render an arbitrary webpage, subsequently recovering sensitive information present within it using speculative execution," researchers Jason Kim, Stephan van Schaik, Daniel Genkin, and Yuval Yarom said in a new study.

In a practical attack scenario, the weakness could be exploited using a malicious web page to recover Gmail inbox content and even recover passwords that are autofilled by credential managers.

iLeakage, besides being the first case of a Spectre-style speculative execution attack against Apple Silicon CPUs, also works against all third-party web browsers available for iOS and iPadOS owing to Apple's App Store policy that mandates browser vendors to use Safari's WebKit engine.

Apple was notified of the findings on September 12, 2022. The shortcoming impacts all Apple devices released from 2020 that are powered by Apple's A-series and M-series ARM processors.

The crux of the problem is rooted in the fact that malicious JavaScript and WebAssembly embedded in a web page in one browser tab can surreptitiously read the content of a target website when a victim visits the attacker-controlled web page.

This is accomplished by means of a microarchitectural side-channel that can be weaponized by a malicious actor to infer sensitive information through other variables like timing, power consumption, or electromagnetic emanations.

The side channel that forms the basis of the latest attack is a performance optimization mechanism in modern CPUs called speculative execution, which has been the target of several such similar methods since Spectre came to light in 2018.

While speculative execution is designed as a way to yield a performance advantage by using spare processing cycles to execute program instructions in an out-of-order fashion when encountering a conditional branch instruction whose direction depends on preceding instructions whose execution is not completed yet.

The cornerstone of this technique is to make a prediction as to the path that the program will follow, and speculatively execute instructions along the path. When the prediction turns out to be correct, the task is completed quicker than it would have taken otherwise.

But when a misprediction occurs, the results of the speculative execution are abandoned and the processor resumes along the correct path. That said, these erroneous predictions leave behind certain traces in the cache.

Attacks like Spectre involve inducing a CPU to speculatively perform operations that would not occur during correct program execution and which leak the victim's confidential information via the side channel.

In other words, by coercing CPUs into mispredicting sensitive instructions, the idea is to enable an attacker (through a rogue program) to access data associated with a different program (i.e., victim), effectively breaking down isolation protections.

iLeakage not only bypasses hardening measures incorporated by Apple, but also implements a timer-less and architecture-agnostic method that leverages race conditions to distinguish individual cache hits from cache misses when two processes -- each associated with the attacker and the target -- run on the same CPU.

This gadget then forms the basis of a covert channel that ultimately achieves an out-of-bounds read anywhere in the address space of Safari's rendering process, resulting in information leakage.

While chances of this vulnerability being used in practical real-world attacks are unlikely owing to the technical expertise required to pull it off, the research underscores the continued threats posed by hardware vulnerabilities even after all these years.

News of iLeakage comes months after cybersecurity researchers revealed details of a trifecta of side-channel attacks – Collide+Power (CVE-2023-20583), Downfall (CVE-2022-40982), and Inception (CVE-2023-20569) – that could be exploited to leak sensitive data from modern CPUs.

It also follows the discovery of RowPress, a variant of the RowHammer attack on DRAM chips and an improvement over BlackSmith that can be used to cause bitflips in adjacent rows, leading to data corruption or theft.
