Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026
A use-after-free memory-management flaw affects Apple's operating system family prior to the 26.6 releases — iOS and iPadOS 26.6, macOS Tahoe 26.6, tvOS 26.6 and watchOS 26.6 — and allows a locally installed app to trigger unexpected system termination (a denial-of-service condition). The vulnerability is rated CVSS 5.5 with a local attack vector, low complexity and low privileges required, but no confidentiality or integrity impact; EPSS is only 0.19 percent and there is no CISA KEV listing and no publicly available exploit code identified at time of analysis. Apple has shipped fixes in all four platform advisories, so the practical risk is concentrated on unpatched devices rather than on active exploitation.

Attack Technique
Use-after-free vulnerabilities occur when a program continues to access memory through a pointer after that memory has been deallocated.
Memory corruption occurs when a program writes data beyond the boundaries of allocated memory regions or accesses memory in unintended ways, violating the integrity of the process's address space.
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
