Briefings
A security alert warns that iOS versions 26.0 through 27.2.2 are vulnerable to a potential sandbox escape allowing local secrets to be read in plaintext. The issue affects users of the 'worse_query' repository, which targets these specific iOS versions. The alert was published on November 10, 2026, and the vulnerability remains unpatched as of the report.
Key points
- iOS versions 26.0–27.2.2 are vulnerable to a sandbox escape allowing local secrets to be read in plaintext.
- The 'worse_query' repository targets these specific iOS versions, making them affected by the vulnerability.
Context
This finding addresses a critical security gap in iOS 26.0–27.2.2 where local secrets stored in plaintext could be accessed if the sandbox escape vulnerability is exploited. The alert originates from The Defiant, a security-focused publication, and highlights the need for immediate patching to prevent unauthorized data access.
Limitations
The evidence is limited to the 'worse_query' repository's target list and the wallet warning's description of plaintext secrets. No specific exploit details, affected user counts, or patch release dates are provided in the source.
