WebCore in Apple Mac OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4 through 10.4.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted HTML that triggers a "memory management error" in WebKit, possibly due to a buffer overflow, as originally reported for the KHTMLParser::popOneBlock function in Apple Safari 2.0.4 using Javascript that changes document.body.innerHTML within a DIV tag.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
