Apple Multiple Products Memory Corruption Vulnerability
CVE-2025-31200 is a security vulnerability in Apple Multiple Products, added to CISA KEV on April 17, 2025. Patch order: second of four.
What is CVE-2025-31200?
Apple iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and other Apple products contain a memory corruption vulnerability that allows for code execution when processing an audio stream in a maliciously crafted media file.
VulnCheck tracked exploitation 1 day before CISA's KEV listing. VulnCheck's broader catalog of in-the-wild exploitation evidence picked this up before it landed on CISA's formal list. Per-CVE fact about this entry; not a population claim about lead time in general.
Who is affected by CVE-2025-31200?
Affects anyone running Macs, iPhones, or iPads in the office. For a small practice, Apple endpoints are typically how staff handle email, browse client portals, and store local case files — exploitation gives an attacker access to that data on the device.
What should I do about CVE-2025-31200?
Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
The action above is CISA's wording. The directive it names, BOD 22-01, was revoked by BOD 26-04 on June 10, 2026; CISA's catalog still carries the older text for this entry.
If you don't have someone in-house to verify the patch deployed across every endpoint — or you're not sure whether you're affected — that's exactly the kind of triage we do. Request a free review.
Insurance readiness
Your insurer will ask if this is patched.
Unpatched entries on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list are exactly what cyber-insurance carrier questionnaires probe for, and knowing which controls they check is how you keep a renewal from stalling.

CISA due date
CISA's listed due date: May 8, 2025.
Federal civilian agencies work under CISA's Binding Operational Directive 26-04, which replaced BOD 22-01 on June 10, 2026. It sets the deadline for each affected system by:
- How exposed that system is to the internet
- Whether the attack can be automated
- How much control it gives an attacker
Its table gives catalogued vulnerabilities 3 or 14 days.
None of this binds a private business, but treat the date as a strong recommendation, especially if you handle regulated data (HIPAA, GLBA, ABA model rules).
EPSS
EPSS score: 20.9% — higher than 98% of all scored CVEs.
EPSS estimates the probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days. Every entry on this site is already confirmed exploited, so read it as relative urgency among the things you still have open, not as permission to wait.
