Memory corruption vulnerabilities in Apple's graphics texture processing engine across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, and watchOS allow remote code execution via maliciously crafted texture files. Affects all major Apple platforms prior to July 2025 updates (iOS/iPadOS 18.6, macOS Sequoia 15.6, tvOS 18.6, visionOS 2.6, watchOS 11.6). Despite a critical CVSS 9.8 score indicating network-exploitable remote code execution without authentication, EPSS shows only 0.18% exploitation probability (40th percentile), and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The vulnerability requires processing specially crafted texture data, likely through applications handling untrusted image or 3D content.
Buffer overflow memory corruption in Apple file parsing components allows remote code execution across iOS 18.6, iPadOS 18.6, macOS (Sequoia 15.6, Sonoma 14.7.7, Ventura 13.7.7), tvOS 18.6, visionOS 2.6, and watchOS 11.6. Unauthenticated attackers can trigger arbitrary code execution by delivering a maliciously crafted file requiring no user interaction beyond parsing. Despite CVSS 9.8 critical severity, EPSS score of 0.16% (37th percentile) indicates low observed exploitation probability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and not listed in CISA KEV, suggesting theoretical risk exceeds current real-world threat activity.
Out-of-bounds write vulnerability in WebKit across Apple's entire operating system ecosystem allows remote code execution via maliciously crafted web content without user interaction or authentication. Affects iOS, iPadOS, macOS (Ventura through Sequoia), tvOS, visionOS, and watchOS prior to July 2025 security updates. Despite a critical 9.8 CVSS score indicating maximum severity, EPSS probability remains low at 0.14% (34th percentile), and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, suggesting limited observed exploitation attempts despite the theoretical remote attack surface.
Memory handling flaw in macOS allows remote denial-of-service via malicious application, affecting Sequoia 15.x, Sonoma 14.x, and Ventura 13.x systems prior to July 2025 security updates. Despite a critical 9.8 CVSS score indicating network-accessible attack with no authentication required, EPSS probability is low (0.10%, 27th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The severity rating appears inconsistent with the described impact (DoS only, no code execution), suggesting CVSS vector may require validation against actual attack requirements.
Use-after-free memory corruption in Apple's operating systems (iPadOS 17.x, macOS Sequoia 15.x, Sonoma 14.x, Ventura 13.x) allows network-based attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service without authentication. The vulnerability was remediated by removing the vulnerable code entirely rather than patching it. Despite a critical CVSS 9.8 score, EPSS indicates only 0.08% exploitation probability (24th percentile), and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Apple released patches in July 2025 across all affected platforms simultaneously.
File system permission bypass in macOS allows applications to modify protected system files without proper authorization. Affects macOS Sequoia (prior to 15.6), Sonoma (prior to 14.7.7), and Ventura (prior to 13.7.7). Despite a critical 9.8 CVSS score with network attack vector rating, the vulnerability requires local application execution, making the CVSS vector potentially misleading. EPSS exploitation probability is very low at 0.08% (24th percentile), and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Tagged for information disclosure, though integrity impact is primary concern given file system modification capability.
Privacy controls in macOS Sequoia, Sonoma, and Ventura can be bypassed by local applications due to insufficient permission enforcement, allowing unauthorized access to privacy-protected resources. Fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.6, Sonoma 14.7.7, and Ventura 13.7.7. CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical) reflects network-exploitable attack vector, but actual exploitation requires local app installation, making the CVSS vector (AV:N) likely misaligned with the described attack scenario. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS score of 0.08% (24th percentile) indicates low predicted exploitation probability despite high CVSS severity.
Authentication bypass in macOS Shortcuts allows malicious shortcuts to circumvent sensitive app settings without user consent across macOS Ventura 13.x, Sonoma 14.x, and Sequoia 15.x prior to July 2025 security updates. Despite a critical CVSS 9.8 score suggesting network-based exploitation, the vulnerability actually requires local shortcut execution with no authentication (PR:N), making the CVSS vector potentially misaligned with the actual attack surface. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, with EPSS score of 0.08% (24th percentile) indicating low predicted exploitation probability. Apple fixed the issue by adding mandatory user consent prompts.
Applications on Apple operating systems can fingerprint users through a permissions flaw that bypasses privacy restrictions. Affects macOS Ventura 13.x, Sonoma 14.x, Sequoia 15.x, and iPadOS 17.x with patches released in versions 13.7.7, 14.7.7, 15.6, and 17.7.9 respectively. CVSS 9.8 critical severity contradicts the low EPSS score (0.07%, 22nd percentile) and information disclosure nature, suggesting scoring misalignment. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the low technical barrier (network accessible, no authentication required per CVSS vector) makes this concerning for privacy-focused environments despite the limited impact scope of user fingerprinting.
Memory handling flaws in Apple's operating systems allow unauthenticated remote attackers to cause information disclosure and application crashes by sending maliciously crafted files. Affects iOS 18.x prior to 18.6, iPadOS 18.x prior to 18.6, macOS Sequoia prior to 15.6, tvOS prior to 18.6, and visionOS prior to 2.6. CVSS 9.1 (Critical) reflects network-accessible attack vector with no authentication required, though EPSS probability remains low at 0.12% (32nd percentile), and no public exploit or active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis.
Sandbox escape in macOS Sequoia 15.x and Sonoma 14.x allows sandboxed processes to bypass security restrictions and access high-value confidential data or modify system integrity without authentication. Patched in macOS Sequoia 15.6 and macOS Sonoma 14.8. EPSS exploitation probability is low (0.05%, 16th percentile), and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the CVSS 9.1 rating reflects the severe theoretical impact of compromised sandbox isolation-a critical security boundary in macOS architecture.
