## What to check

- Applies to: The 2 CVEs named below. Whether you run an affected version is not assessed: check the versions the source lists.
- Exploitation: No exploitation in the wild and no public exploit is recorded for the CVEs named.

CERT-FR issued an advisory covering multiple vulnerabilities in Apple's Xcode development tool, affecting versions prior to 27.2. The flaws could allow an attacker to breach data confidentiality, though the advisory does not detail the attack vector or confirm exploitation in the wild. Apple addressed the issues in security bulletin 149589, published October 29, 2026, tracked as CVE-2026-112602 and CVE-2026-112605.

Defenders using Xcode for iOS/macOS development should update to version 27.2 or later as soon as possible. No indicators of compromise or exploitation details were provided; the advisory is a standard vulnerability notification rather than evidence of active attacks.
