Application crash via undisclosed file-parsing flaw
Published Jan 27, 2025 · Updated Apr 2, 2026
Denial of service in AppleGraphicsControl in Apple macOS Sonoma before 14.7.3 and Sequoia before 15.3 allows attackers to crash an app. Apple states only that improved checks address the file-parsing flaw and has not disclosed the parser, file format, or failed validation. Exploitation requires local access and user interaction with a crafted file; the documented consequence is limited to unexpected application termination.
