Summary
Messages in Apple iOS before 6, when multiple iMessage e-mail addresses are configured, does not ensure that a reply's sender address matches the recipient address of the original message, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information about alternate e-mail addresses in opportunistic circumstances by reading a reply.
Exploit prediction
1.14% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 66% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-09).
