The Screen Lock implementation in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9 does not immediately accept Keychain Status menu Lock Screen commands, and instead incorrectly relies on a certain timeout setting, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading a screen that should have transitioned into the locked state.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw affected Screen Lock behavior on Apple Mac OS X before 10.9. A user could request Lock Screen from the Keychain Status menu, but the screen might not lock immediately, leaving visible information exposed to someone physically nearby. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Apple Mac OS X systems older than 10.9, especially shared, kiosk, lab, front-desk, or otherwise physically accessible machines. Low for modern environments, because the issue is old, requires physical proximity, and affects pre-10.9 systems. Prioritize if legacy Macs remain in sensitive or public-facing locations. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire or upgrade Mac OS X systems older than 10.9.; Check Apple advisory guidance for the relevant OS X security update.; Avoid relying on vulnerable legacy Screen Lock behavior for sensitive workstations..
