Vulnerability from variot
The HTML form implementation in WebKit in Apple iOS before 9 does not prevent QuickType access to the final character of a password, which might make it easier for remote attackers to discover a password by leveraging a later prediction containing that character. Apple iOS Used in etc. WebKit is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to bypass security restrictions, obtain sensitive information, execute arbitrary code with system privileges, conduct phishing attacks, and perform unauthorized actions; this may aid in launching further attacks. WebKit is a set of open source web browser engines jointly developed by companies such as KDE, Apple (Apple), and Google (Google), and is currently used by browsers such as Apple Safari and Google Chrome. A security vulnerability exists in the implementation of HTML forms in Apple's iOS 8.4.1 and earlier versions of WebKit. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to discover passwords
