Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2015-3697 is a local privilege escalation issue in Apple OS X's Intel Graphics Driver before OS X 10.10.4. A user who already has local access could potentially gain higher privileges. The practical risk is concentrated in legacy Macs still running vulnerable OS X versions. Exposure is likely limited to Apple OS X systems older than 10.10.4 using the affected Intel Graphics Driver. Modern macOS versions are not identified as affected in the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy-platform risk. It is not internet-exposed based on the sources, but any remaining vulnerable Mac can turn ordinary local access into administrative control. Prioritize upgrade or retirement if such systems still exist. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected OS X systems to 10.10.4 or later per Apple guidance.; Check Apple HT204942 and APPLE-SA-2015-06-30-2 for vendor remediation details.; Retire or isolate Macs that cannot be upgraded..
