The weakness is a privacy issue related to improper checks before screenshot capture, classified as CWE-200, which directly affects user confidentiality. This could enable an attacker to harvest confidential data without further system compromise.", "risk_and_exploitability": "The CVSS score of 5.5 indicates moderate severity, while an EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a very low likelihood of exploitation at present. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, indicating no widespread exploitation has been reported.

Once installed, the app could capture screenshots of embedded content, leading to sensitive data disclosure."}}}}, "created": "2025-11-04T16:34:34.539839+00:00", "title": "Malicious App Could Take Screenshots of Sensitive Embedded Views", "updated": "2026-04-27T23:30:15.497866+00:00", "vendors": ["apple", "apple$PRODUCT$ios", "apple$PRODUCT$ipados", "apple$PRODUCT$visionos", "apple$PRODUCT$watchos"]}
