Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A memory corruption vulnerability was addressed with improved locking. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.7.10 and iPadOS 18.7.10, iOS 26.6.1 and iPadOS 26.6.1, macOS Tahoe 26.6.2. Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to an unexpected Safari crash.
AnalysisAI
Memory corruption via a race condition in Apple's web content processing engine (WebKit) causes Safari to crash when a user loads maliciously crafted content on iOS, iPadOS, or macOS Tahoe. The root cause is an improper locking deficiency (CWE-362), confirmed by Apple's own description of the fix as "improved locking." No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog; Apple has released patches across all affected platforms.

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the target user to actively load maliciously crafted web content in Safari on a vulnerable Apple device running iOS/iPadOS prior to 18.7.10 or 26.6.1, or macOS Tahoe prior to 26.6.2. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.1 (Low) accurately reflects limited real-world impact: attack complexity is high (AC:H, consistent with the timing-sensitive nature of race condition exploitation), user interaction is required (UI:R), scope is unchanged (S:U), and the only impact is limited availability (A:L - a Safari process crash rather than a system-level denial of service). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | The definitive fix is to upgrade to iOS 18.7.10 or iPadOS 18.7.10 for devices on the legacy 18.x branch, iOS 26.6.1 or iPadOS 26.6.1 for the current branch, or macOS Tahoe 26.6.2, all available via standard Apple OTA updates. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
