User information disclosure via image parsing
Published Mar 31, 2025 · Updated Jul 8, 2026
Information disclosure in ImageIO in Apple operating systems allows local users to expose user information by parsing a crafted image. Apple identifies a logic error in ImageIO error handling but has not disclosed the erroneous branch, operation, or image format involved. Exploitation requires local image parsing on an affected release; the reported consequence is limited to user-information disclosure.
