CVE-2026-28994 is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Wi‑Fi component of multiple Apple operating systems. The flaw was addressed through improved memory management. An attacker in a privileged network position can trigger the issue by sending crafted Wi‑Fi packets to a vulnerable device, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Affected platforms include iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS releases prior to the patched versions.
