About this blog

Hacking techniques include penetration testing, network security, reverse cracking, malware analysis, vulnerability exploitation, encryption cracking, social engineering, etc., used to identify and fix security flaws in systems.

VULNERABILITY DETAILS
From /WebKit/Source/core/dom/ContainerNode.cpp:

----------------
void ContainerNode::parserInsertBefore(PassRefPtrWillBeRawPtr<Node> newChild, Node& nextChild)
{
(...)
    while (RefPtrWillBeRawPtr<ContainerNode> parent = newChild->parentNode())
        parent->parserRemoveChild(*newChild);

    if (document() != newChild->document())
        document().adoptNode(newChild.get(), ASSERT_NO_EXCEPTION);

    {
        EventDispatchForbiddenScope assertNoEventDispatch;
        ScriptForbiddenScope forbidScript;

        treeScope().adoptIfNeeded(*newChild);
        insertBeforeCommon(nextChild, *newChild);
        newChild->updateAncestorConnectedSubframeCountForInsertion();
        ChildListMutationScope(*this).childAdded(*newChild);
    }

    notifyNodeInserted(*newChild, ChildrenChangeSourceParser);
}
----------------

|parserRemoveChild| can run script, and it can remove |nextChild| from DOM or move the node around. When this happens, the tree will be in an inconsistent state after the |insertBeforeCommon| call, allowing an attacker to bypass the frame restrictions.
