Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2022-48503
This JavaScriptCore flaw spans Apple macOS, iOS, tvOS, Safari, and watchOS, where processing malicious web content can lead to arbitrary code execution. It was added to CISA KEV in October 2025, years after the fix shipped, and the affected OS versions may be end-of-life, so the exposed population is old Apple devices that can no longer update. A browser-engine bug means one bad web page is the entire attack.
Do this: Find Apple devices stuck on OS versions that no longer receive updates and retire them or block their web access.
