CVE-2010-1226
Status: ModifiedMedium (5)—💥 Exploit
The HTTP client functionality in Apple iPhone OS 3.1 on the iPhone 2G and 3.1.3 on the iPhone 3GS allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Safari, Mail, or Springboard crash) via a crafted innerHTML property of a DIV element, related to a "malformed character" issue.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
- Base score: 5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 5.09%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 92
- Score date: 10/17/2026
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).
💥 Public exploits
Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
