"Microsoft: macOS Vulnerability Potentially Exploited in Adware Attacks"

Microsoft warned that a recently patched macOS vulnerability could be used in adware attacks. The flaw enables attackers to bypass the operating system's Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC) technology and access user data. Apple addressed the bug in macOS Sequoia 15 by removing the vulnerable code. The company also emphasized that only MDM-managed devices are affected. According to Microsoft, the flaw's exploitation involves removing the TCC protection for the Safari browser directory and modifying a configuration file in the directory. This allows access to the user's browsed pages, their device's camera, and more. This article continues to discuss the potential exploitation of the macOS vulnerability in adware attacks.
