An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.13 Supplemental Update is affected. The issue involves the "Security" component. It allows attackers to bypass the keychain access prompt, and consequently extract passwords, via a synthetic click.
The product does not require that users should have strong passwords, which makes it easier for attackers to compromise user accounts.
