DescriptionCVE.org

A race condition was addressed with additional validation. This issue is fixed in macOS Tahoe 26.4. An app may be able to access sensitive user data.

AnalysisAI

Race condition in Apple macOS (all versions before Tahoe 26.4) allows a locally-executing app to win a timing window during a validation step and access sensitive user data it should not be permitted to read. The vulnerability carries a CVSS base score of 4.7 (Medium) reflecting local attack vector, high complexity, and a confidentiality-only impact. No public exploit code exists and no active exploitation has been confirmed; EPSS places exploitation probability at 0.02% (5th percentile), consistent with the CISA SSVC assessment of exploitation status 'none'.

Technical ContextAI

CWE-362 (Concurrent Execution Using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization, commonly called a race condition or TOCTOU flaw) describes a class of bugs where two or more concurrent operations access a shared resource without proper locking or sequencing guarantees, allowing an attacker to manipulate state between a check and a use. In this case, an application running under macOS can race against a validation routine to read sensitive user data before the OS enforces access controls. The affected product is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:apple:macos:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, covering all macOS releases prior to Tahoe 26.4. Apple addressed the root cause with 'additional validation,' which typically means introducing a check-then-act sequence that is atomic or mutex-protected to close the race window.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to macOS Tahoe 26.4, which contains Apple's fix (additional validation to close the race window). The vendor-released patch is confirmed via the Apple security advisory at https://support.apple.com/en-us/126794. No workarounds are documented by the vendor for this specific race condition. As a compensating control where immediate upgrade is not possible, restricting the installation and execution of untrusted third-party applications via macOS Gatekeeper policies or MDM profiles reduces the attack surface, since exploitation requires a malicious app to execute locally; note this does not eliminate the vulnerability but raises the barrier for an attacker to deliver the malicious app.
