CVE-2026-28993 is a privacy and authorization weakness in Apple Shortcuts that could allow an application to access user-sensitive data without sufficient user awareness or consent. The issue affected Apple platforms including iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS. Available information indicates the flaw was remediated by adding an additional prompt for user consent, which strongly suggests that the vulnerable behavior stemmed from inadequate consent enforcement or insufficient confirmation before Shortcuts-mediated access to protected data. Successful exploitation could permit an app to obtain sensitive user data through Shortcuts workflows or related interactions that did not require an adequate additional approval step.
