Apple Shortcuts Access to Inaccessible Files Vulnerability

A permissions vulnerability in the Shortcuts app on multiple Apple operating systems, including macOS Ventura 13.7.5, iPadOS 17.7.6, macOS Sequoia 15.4, and macOS Sonoma 14.7.5, allows shortcuts to access files that are typically restricted. This issue has been addressed with improved validation and access restrictions.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to files that are normally inaccessible to the Shortcuts app, potentially allowing for the manipulation or disclosure of sensitive information.
