Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2023-37450

Another route to code execution through WebKit: processing maliciously crafted web content compromises iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Safari, and the engine's reuse means non-Apple HTML parsers can inherit the bug too. Apple shipped fixes after in-the-wild exploitation, and CISA listed it in July 2023. It is rated High Severity (CVSS 8.8) with an 18% EPSS score.

Do this: Update Safari and Apple operating systems across the fleet, treating browsers as the exposed surface.
