# Apple: out-of-bounds read in file processing crashes apps

An out-of-bounds memory read in Apple's operating systems lets a maliciously crafted file cause an app to terminate unexpectedly. The description reports only a crash, not code execution or data disclosure.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed OS version under Settings > General > About on iOS and iPadOS, or run `sw_vers` on macOS.
- Compare against the fixed versions: `26.7.2` for iOS, iPadOS, macOS Tahoe and macOS Sequoia 15.8.2, and `27.2` for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate and visionOS.

## Fix

- Update iOS and iPadOS to `26.7.2` or `27.2`.
- Update macOS Tahoe to `26.7.2`, macOS Sequoia to `15.8.2`, macOS Golden Gate to `27.2`, and visionOS to `27.2`.
