Apple macOS Buffer Overflow Vulnerability Allowing Kernel Memory Write and System Termination

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in multiple macOS versions, including Sequoia 15.7.7, Sonoma 14.8.7, and Tahoe 26.5. This vulnerability allows an application to cause unexpected system termination or write to kernel memory. The issue was addressed with improved bounds checking.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to a buffer overflow, allowing for memory corruption and potentially enabling arbitrary code execution with kernel privileges.
