DescriptionCVE.org

This issue was addressed through improved state management. This issue is fixed in Safari 26.6, iOS 26.6 and iPadOS 26.6, macOS Tahoe 26.6, visionOS 26.6. Visiting a website may lead to an app denial-of-service.

AnalysisAI

Safari and WebKit-based apps across Apple platforms crash when a user visits a specially crafted website, due to a state management flaw (CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption) in versions prior to 26.6. Affected platforms include Safari on macOS Tahoe, iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and visionOS 26. No confidentiality or integrity impact is present - the consequence is an app-level denial-of-service. No public exploit code exists and CISA SSVC confirms no active exploitation, with EPSS at 0.16% (6th percentile), indicating very low exploitation likelihood at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

The root cause is CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption), a class of flaw where a program fails to properly limit resource usage, here triggered through improper state management in Apple's WebKit rendering engine - the engine underlying Safari and all iOS/iPadOS/visionOS in-app browsers. CPE data confirms the affected surface: cpe:2.3:a:apple:safari, cpe:2.3:a:apple:ios_and_ipados, cpe:2.3:a:apple:macos, and cpe:2.3:a:apple:visionos, all before version 26.6. Apple's fix description ('improved state management') suggests the engine failed to correctly track or release internal state during page rendering or script execution, allowing a malicious page to exhaust a resource and crash the hosting application.

RemediationAI

The primary fix is to update to the patched versions released by Apple: Safari 26.6, iOS 26.6 and iPadOS 26.6, macOS Tahoe 26.6, and visionOS 26.6. These updates are available through standard Apple software update mechanisms and are documented in Apple's security advisories at https://support.apple.com/en-us/128066 (Safari), https://support.apple.com/en-us/128067 (iOS/iPadOS), https://support.apple.com/en-us/128070 (macOS Tahoe), and https://support.apple.com/en-us/128073 (visionOS). As a compensating control where immediate patching is not possible, restricting user access to untrusted or unknown websites via DNS filtering or web proxy content policies can reduce exposure, though this introduces usability trade-offs. There is no known server-side mitigation since the flaw is entirely client-side.
