CVE-2009-1689
Status: ModifiedMedium (4.3)—
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in WebKit in Apple Safari before 4.0, iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.2.1, and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.2.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving submission of a form to the about:blank URL, leading to security-context replacement.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
- Base score: 4.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 2.66%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 85
- Score date: 10/9/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
