Apple Safari is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability that resides in the WebKit library.
Remote attackers can exploit this issue to crash the affected browser, denial-of-service condition.
Apple Safari 3.2 running on Microsoft Windows Vista is vulnerable; other versions running on different platforms may also be affected.
Note (December 20, 2010): Safari on iOS 4.0.1 is also vulnerable.
