Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-0260 is an Apple Mac OS X Lion issue where a locked computer could still send keystrokes to a system window. A nearby person might bypass intended lock-screen restrictions by typing into that window. The issue is fixed in Mac OS X 10.7.2 or later, based on the CVE description. Exposure is limited to Apple Mac OS X 10.7 systems before 10.7.2, especially shared, unattended, kiosk-like, lab, or physically accessible Macs. Modern macOS versions are not identified as affected in the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy endpoint exposure, not an internet-scale emergency. Prioritize remediation where old Macs remain physically accessible to untrusted users, because the issue affects lock-screen trust and local access control. Mitigation focus: Update affected Mac OS X 10.7 systems to 10.7.2 or later.; Review Apple advisory APPLE-SA-2011-10-12-3 and HT5002 for vendor guidance.; Restrict physical access to any legacy Macs pending update or replacement..
