Sensitive information disclosure via authorization state mishandling
Published Jun 11, 2026 · Updated Jun 11, 2026
Authorization failure in Apple MediaRemote before iOS and iPadOS 18.4 and macOS 15.4 allows apps to leak sensitive user information. MediaRemote mishandles authorization state when an app requests data, but Apple has not disclosed the affected API, state transition, or leaked data. A locally running app is the stated gate; the reported consequence is confidentiality loss only, with no reported data modification or service interruption.
