Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A null pointer dereference was addressed with improved input validation. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.7.9 and iPadOS 18.7.9, iOS 26.5 and iPadOS 26.5. An app may be able to cause unexpected system termination.
AnalysisAI
Null pointer dereference in iOS and iPadOS allows a locally installed app to trigger unexpected system termination (device crash/reboot) by supplying crafted input that bypasses input validation. Affected versions span the legacy 18.x branch (prior to 18.7.9) and the current 26.x branch (prior to 26.5), covering a broad swath of Apple mobile devices. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a malicious or crafted application to be installed and executed on the target device with at minimum a low-privilege user context (consistent with CVSS PR:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The composite risk picture is consistently low-to-moderate. … 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 primary fix is to upgrade to iOS 18.7.9 or iPadOS 18.7.9 (for devices on the 18.x branch) or to iOS 26.5 or iPadOS 26.5 (for devices on the 26.x branch), both available via Settings > General > Software Update. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
