CVE-2015-1061
IOSurface in Apple iOS before 8.2, Apple OS X through 10.10.2, and Apple TV before 7.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context via a crafted app that leverages "type confusion" during serialized-object handling.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.21%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
