CVE-2026-113970

Summary

A use-after-free vulnerability in Bluetooth-related code allows memory corruption when freed memory is accessed again. This flaw enables an attacker within Bluetooth range to potentially execute arbitrary code or crash the target device.

Exploitability

Exploitation requires proximity (Bluetooth range) and no authentication or user interaction, but success depends on precise memory conditions and is non-trivial without additional information leaks.

Blast radius

Successful exploitation could lead to full system compromise (CIA impact high), including remote code execution, data theft, or denial of service on affected Apple devices.

Detection

No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.

Prioritized remediation

Upgrade to iOS/iPadOS 18.7.12, iOS/iPadOS 26.7.3, iOS/iPadOS 27.2.1, macOS Golden Gate 27.2.1, macOS Sequoia 15.8.3, macOS Tahoe 26.7.3, visionOS 27.2.1, watchOS 26.6.1, or watchOS 27.2.1 as appropriate for the device.
