User information disclosure via out-of-bounds read
Published Oct 28, 2024 · Updated Apr 2, 2026
Out-of-bounds read in Foundation on Apple operating systems allows context-dependent attackers to disclose user information through a crafted file. Within Foundation, insufficient input validation permits a parser to read past the intended memory boundary; Apple has not identified the file format or function. Exploitation requires user interaction to trigger parsing, and the published impact is limited to disclosure with no integrity or availability effect.
