MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.97%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.97%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
The issue was addressed with improved permissions logic. This issue is fixed in iOS 14.5 and iPadOS 14.5. An application may allow shortcuts to access restricted files.
