Two vulnerabilities have been identified in Apple Mac OS X, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary code or inject HTTP headers.
The first issue is caused by an error in XMLHttpRequest when serializing headers into an HTTP request, which could be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting attacks by tricking a user into visiting a specially crafted web page.
The second vulnerability is caused by an invalid type conversion in WebKit when rendering frame sets, which could be exploited by attackers to compromise an affected systeme by tricking a user into visiting a malicious web page.
