A race condition was addressed with improved locking. This issue is fixed in macOS Golden Gate 27, macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7. A local user may be able to read kernel memory.
AnalysisAI
A race condition in Apple macOS kernel locking allows a local user with existing code execution on the host to read kernel memory, fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7, and macOS Golden Gate 27. Exploitation requires local authenticated access and a high-complexity timing win in the kernel's locking path, so it is probabilistic rather than reliable, and the impact is limited to confidentiality (kernel memory disclosure) with no code execution, modification, or denial of service. …
