AI-suggested
To mitigate CVE-2025-24248, organizations and users should promptly update all macOS devices to version Sequoia 15.4 or later, where the vulnerability is fixed. Restricting app permissions and installing apps only from trusted sources can reduce exposure. Network-level controls such as application whitelisting and monitoring for unusual device enumeration behaviors can help detect exploitation attempts. Enterprises should audit and limit the use of third-party applications that request access to Apple Account information. Additionally, enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) on Apple Accounts can reduce the risk of account compromise even if device enumeration occurs.
Description
A permissions issue was addressed with additional restrictions. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.4. An app may be able to enumerate devices that have signed into the user's Apple Account.
