CVE-2024-23242

Mail data disclosure via text-field logging

Published Mar 8, 2024 · Updated Apr 2, 2026

Information disclosure in Apple iOS and iPadOS before 17.4 and macOS before 14.4 allows attackers to view Mail data through a local app. Synapse records the contents of text fields in logs instead of excluding that private content, exposing Mail field data to an app able to read those records. Exploitation requires local application execution; the published impact is limited to reading Mail data, with no reported modification or service interruption.
