The Apple Security Update Review for September 2026

Apple's September 2026 updates patch 45+ flaws, including a 9.8 Screen Sharing authentication bypass (CVE-2026-65400) already listed in CISA's KEV.

ZDI's review of Apple's September 2026 security updates catalogs dozens of CVEs across macOS, iOS, iPadOS, watchOS and other platforms. CVE-2026-65400 (CVSS 9.8) lets a network attacker authenticate to Screen Sharing Server without valid credentials and is flagged as KEV, while CVE-2026-65414 (CVSS 9.8) enables remote code execution via Bluetooth. The set also includes 8.8-rated memory corruption flaws in WebKit, WebRTC, CUPS, ImageIO and the kernel, plus sandbox escapes, privilege escalations to root, and arbitrary code execution via crafted files.

Apple Updates Everything, (Mon, Sep 14th)

Apple patched a record 261 vulnerabilities across iOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, watchOS 27, and other platforms, with none flagged as exploited.

Apple's annual OS update shipped iOS/iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, tvOS 27, watchOS 27, and visionOS 27 plus bug-fix releases for the 26 and 15 branches, fixing a record 261 vulnerabilities. Notable issues include multiple kernel flaws allowing root privilege escalation (CVE-2026-43689, CVE-2026-43691, CVE-2026-43698, CVE-2026-43786), remote code execution in CUPS (CVE-2026-43692), kernel memory corruption via malicious NFS servers (CVE-2026-43686, CVE-2026-43687), and WebKit memory corruption from crafted web content (CVE-2026-43715). No vulnerabilities are labeled as actively exploited, and Apple does not assign per-CVE severities. Users report iOS 26.7 being downloaded when iOS 27 is intended, and tools like Little Snitch and BlockBlock need updates before upgrading to macOS 27.

Apple Rolls Out Massive Security Update Fixing 273 Vulnerabilities Across Its Devices

Apple shipped one of its largest coordinated security updates on September 14, 2026, fixing 273 unique CVEs across iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, visionOS 27, Safari 27 and Xcode 27. Highlights include CVE-2026-65414, a Bluetooth out-of-bounds write enabling remote code execution, and CVE-2026-84607, an AVEVideoEncoder race condition granting kernel privileges to sandboxed apps. macOS Golden Gate 27 covers the broadest set with 210 CVEs, and Apple states none of the flaws were exploited in the wild.

Zoom Annotation Flaws Could Let a Meeting Participant Hijack Another Attendee's Client

A Security researchers disclosed three Zoom annotation flaws enabling zero-click client hijacking; Zoom shipped fixes in June and July with no exploitation reported.

Researchers at A Security found three flaws in Zoom's annotation feature: CVE-2026-53413 (CVSS 8.3, buffer over-write), CVE-2026-53414 (CVSS 6.5, buffer over-read), and CVE-2026-53415 (CVSS 8.3, use-after-free). A crafted drawing object sent over the wrong message channel can overwrite adjacent memory and hijack another attendee's client with no user interaction. Fixes shipped in Zoom Workplace 7.1.5/7.0.6, VDI Client 7.0.11/6.6.16, and Zoom Rooms/Meeting SDK 7.1.0+ during June and July. No exploitation has been reported and the flaws are absent from CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
