CVE-2011-3430
Status: ModifiedHigh (9.3)—
The Settings component in Apple iOS before 5, when a configuration profile is used for a locale other than English, does not properly implement localization, which makes it easier for attackers to have an unspecified impact by leveraging incorrect configuration display.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Base score: 9.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.75%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 78
- Score date: 10/16/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
