CVE-2009-1697
Status: ModifiedMedium (4.3)—
CRLF injection 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 HTTP headers and bypass the Same Origin Policy via a crafted HTML document, related to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks that depend on communication with arbitrary web sites on the same server through use of XMLHttpRequest without a Host header.
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: 2.99%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 87
- 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).
