Apple Fixes iCloud+ ‘Hide My Email’ Privacy Leak After Class-Action Suit

Apple has officially resolved a significant security vulnerability within its iCloud+ Hide My Email feature. The flaw, which exposed subscribers' actual email addresses to original senders, was first reported in June 2025 by 404 Media and Tyler Murphy. Apple confirmed that a patch was implemented on July 3 to prevent further exposure of protected accounts. This fix concludes a security issue that persisted for approximately one year after its initial discovery in June 2025.
