Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
An out-of-bounds read was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.6 and iPadOS 26.6, macOS Sequoia 15.7.8, macOS Sonoma 14.8.8, macOS Tahoe 26.6. An attacker with physical access to a locked device may be able to view sensitive user information.
AnalysisAI
Physical access to a locked Apple device running vulnerable iOS or macOS allows an attacker to view sensitive user information due to an out-of-bounds read. The flaw is fixed in iOS 26.6, iPadOS 26.6, and multiple macOS versions. No public exploit or active exploitation has been reported.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) in Apple's operating systems - iOS, iPadOS, and macOS - where improper bounds checking allows a physically present attacker to read beyond allocated memory buffers. Affected products per CPE include all versions of iOS and iPadOS before 26.6 and macOS before 15.7.8 (Sequoia), 14.8.8 (Sonoma), and 26.6 (Tahoe). This class of memory corruption typically occurs when handling specially crafted input during locked-device interactions.
RemediationAI
Update to iOS 26.6, iPadOS 26.6, macOS Sequoia 15.7.8, macOS Sonoma 14.8.8, or macOS Tahoe 26.6 as provided by Apple via Software Update. No workarounds are available; mitigating physical access (e.g., strong passcodes, enabling Find My, avoiding unattended devices) reduces exposure but does not patch the vulnerability.
