The kernel in Apple iOS before 8.1.3, Apple OS X before 10.10.2, and Apple TV before 7.0.3 does not enforce the read-only attribute of a shared memory segment during use of a custom cache mode, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted app.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-4495 is an Apple kernel access-control weakness affecting older iOS, OS X, and Apple TV releases. A malicious app could bypass intended memory protections. The sources do not show active exploitation or a severity score, so urgency depends mainly on whether unsupported legacy Apple devices remain in use. Exposure is most likely on legacy Apple endpoints or Apple TV devices still running versions older than the fixed releases. Modern managed fleets are unlikely to be affected unless old devices remain online, unmanaged, or retained for operations. Prioritize this if the business still operates legacy Apple devices below the fixed versions. Otherwise, track it as a historical exposure item and verify asset inventories are clean. Mitigation focus: Upgrade iOS devices to 8.1.3 or later where applicable.; Upgrade OS X systems to 10.10.2 or later where applicable.; Upgrade Apple TV devices to 7.0.3 or later where applicable..
