Sensor data disclosure via improper cache handling
Published Sep 15, 2025 · Updated Sep 15, 2025
Information exposure in WebKit on affected Apple platforms allows remote attackers to read sensor data through a malicious website. Apple identifies cache handling as the faulty locus but has not disclosed which cache entry or invalidation error bypasses the consent check. A user must visit attacker-controlled web content; the published impact is limited to sensor-information disclosure, with no integrity or availability effect.
