Impact
A logic flaw in macOS allows a malicious application to escape its sandbox restrictions. By exploiting this flaw, an attacker could gain unauthorized access to system resources, potentially compromising confidentiality and integrity of data. The weakness relates to improper access control within the operating system sandboxing model.
Affected Systems
Apple macOS versions preceding the 26.4 release of macOS Tahoe are vulnerable. The issue was addressed in macOS Tahoe 26.4 and later revisions. Users running earlier releases are at risk.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 4.0 indicates moderate severity, but the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of widespread exploitation. The vulnerability was not reported in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, the likely attack vector involves a locally running malicious application that attempts to bypass sandbox limits; this inference is drawn from the mention of a sandbox escape scenario.
