Summary
Safari in Apple iPhone OS 1.0 through 2.1 and iPhone OS for iPod touch 1.1 through 2.1 does not isolate the call-approval dialog from the process of launching new applications, which allows remote attackers to make arbitrary phone calls via a crafted HTML document.
Exploit prediction
2.15% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 82% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
