# Apple iOS and macOS: crafted video file crashes apps via out-of-bounds write

A memory write past the end of a buffer occurs when Apple platforms process a maliciously crafted video file. The sources say the result is unexpected app termination, a crash.

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

## How to check

- Check the device or Mac OS version (for example `sw_vers` on macOS) against the fixed builds listed in the sources
- unknown for anything beyond the version comparison

## 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`, or macOS Golden Gate to `27.2`
- Update tvOS and visionOS to `27.2`
