Most applications ignore data stored in the buffer. However, the researchers compiled a list of 50 applications that can look at the clipboard, even if they do not need it. The list also includes the programs with the highest ratings on the App Store, for example, TikTok. The content of the clipboard is intercepted by news applications such as ABC News, weather applications - The Weather Network, and games, including Fruit Ninja and Bejeweled.

So far, none of the tested applications have used the information obtained to harm users. However, experts are worried by the fact that data can be intercepted by applications, as people often copy their passwords or credit card numbers to the clipboard. The vulnerability concerns not only text data, but also data on the user's location. Mysk experts also found that applications can access the universal clipboard on a smartphone or MacBook.
Apple said they were going to fix this vulnerability in the near future.
