Attack Vector: Network
Attack Complexity: Low
Privileges Required: None
User Interaction: Required
Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: High
Integrity: None
Availability: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: Required: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 31 Mar 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

1. Immediately update all Apple devices to Safari 18.4 or later and corresponding OS versions (iOS 18.4, iPadOS 18.4, macOS Sequoia 15.4, visionOS 2.4) to apply the patch that fixes the script isolation issue. 2. Implement network-level web filtering to block access to known malicious or suspicious websites to reduce exposure. 3. Educate users about the risks of visiting untrusted websites and encourage cautious browsing behavior. 4. Use additional browser security features such as content blockers, script blockers, or privacy extensions that limit script execution and data access. 5. Monitor network and endpoint logs for unusual data exfiltration patterns or suspicious web activity that could indicate exploitation attempts. 6. For organizations with high security requirements, consider restricting Safari usage or enforcing managed browser configurations with limited script permissions. 7. Regularly review and update incident response plans to include scenarios involving browser-based data leakage vulnerabilities.

Description

A script imports issue was addressed with improved isolation. This issue is fixed in Safari 18.4, iOS 18.4 and iPadOS 18.4, macOS Sequoia 15.4, visionOS 2.4. Visiting a website may leak sensitive data.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2025-24192 is the potential leakage of sensitive user data when a user visits a malicious website using an affected Safari browser. This can lead to exposure of confidential information such as session tokens, cookies, personal identifiers, or other sensitive data accessible through the browser context. For organizations, this could result in unauthorized access to internal systems, data breaches, or compromise of user accounts if attackers leverage leaked credentials or tokens. Since the vulnerability does not affect data integrity or availability, it is less likely to cause system disruption but can severely impact privacy and confidentiality. The ease of exploitation (no privileges required, only user interaction) increases the risk, especially in environments where users frequently browse untrusted websites. The lack of known exploits in the wild reduces immediate risk but does not eliminate the threat, as attackers may develop exploits following public disclosure. Organizations relying on Apple devices for sensitive operations or handling confidential data are at higher risk of targeted exploitation.
