CVE-2026-20661 is an authorization flaw in the VoiceOver component of iOS and iPadOS. The issue stems from improper state management that allowed VoiceOver behavior to expose sensitive user information even when the device remained in a locked state. Apple addressed the vulnerability by improving state management in VoiceOver. The vulnerability affects Apple mobile platforms prior to iOS 18.7.5 and iPadOS 18.7.5, and prior to iOS 26.3 and iPadOS 26.3.
