DescriptionNVD

A parsing issue in the handling of directory paths was addressed with improved path validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Golden Gate 27, macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7. An app may be able to access sensitive user data.

AnalysisAI

Local directory-path traversal in Apple macOS allows an app already running on the host to reach and read sensitive user data outside the directory it is permitted to access. The root cause is insufficient validation of directory paths (CWE-22), and Apple has remediated it in macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7, and macOS Golden Gate 27. …
