Summary
The Data Security component in Apple iOS before 5 and Apple TV before 4.4 does not properly restrict use of the MD5 hash algorithm within X.509 certificates, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers or obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.
Exploit prediction
0.90% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 59% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-09).
