MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.76%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.76%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A permissions issue existed in which execute permission was incorrectly granted. This issue was addressed with improved permission validation. This issue is fixed in iOS 13. Processing a maliciously crafted file may disclose user information.
