CVE-2019-8757
A race condition existed when reading and writing user preferences.
LOW 2.5EPSS 0.18%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.18%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A race condition existed when reading and writing user preferences. This was addressed with improved state handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Catalina 10.15. The "Share Mac Analytics" setting may not be disabled when a user deselects the switch to share analytics.
