CVE-2026-20653 is a path parsing vulnerability in the Shortcuts component on Apple platforms. The flaw stems from improper handling and validation of directory paths, allowing an application to leverage malformed or otherwise improperly interpreted path input to reach data outside the intended scope. Apple addressed the issue through improved path validation. The vulnerability affects Shortcuts on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS prior to the fixed releases, and successful exploitation may allow an app to access sensitive user data.
