Remote code execution via Bluetooth out-of-bounds write
Published Sep 14, 2026 · Updated Sep 14, 2026
A Bluetooth out-of-bounds write in affected Apple operating systems allows remote attackers to terminate apps or execute arbitrary code. Apple identifies the locus only as Bluetooth and has not disclosed the malformed input or operation that writes beyond its destination buffer. Exploitation requires Bluetooth reachability to an affected device; the disclosed outcomes are app termination or code execution, with no published execution context.
