DescriptionCVE.org

A permissions issue was addressed with additional restrictions. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.7 and iPadOS 26.7, iOS 27 and iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7. An app may be able to modify protected parts of the file system.

AnalysisAI

A local permission-assignment flaw in Apple's mobile and desktop operating systems lets an app installed on the device modify protected parts of the file system, giving it an integrity-only foothold outside its normal sandbox boundaries. Affected platforms are iOS and iPadOS before 26.7 and 27, and macOS before Golden Gate 27, Sequoia 15.8, and Tahoe 26.7; exploitation requires a locally-installed, running app plus user interaction (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N), with no confidentiality or availability impact and no remote or network reachability. …
