  5. “Apple says it has fixed a vulnerability in its Hide My Email feature which let essentially anyone figure out a user’s real email address which was supposed to be protected by the feature. Apple only fixed the vulnerability after 404 Media wrote about it at the start of July, despite Apple knowing about the issue for more than a year.

    The news also follows the filing of a class action lawsuit against Apple over the vulnerability.

    On Wednesday Apple told 404 Media it deployed a patch for the issue on July 3, which the company says has fully resolved the issue.

    Hide My Email is part of Apple’s paid iCloud+ product. It lets customers quickly create a new, anonymous email address they can then use to sign up to websites, services, or email people with. The generated email addresses typically contain two random words followed by a number and the @icloud.com domain. I use it heavily so hackers may have a harder time cross-referencing my activity and accounts across data breaches, for example.”

  8. Back in April I wrote about the gap between what "Hide My Email" implies and what it actually promises. Now we have a court case. Apparently Apple knew about a Hide My Email flaw for over a year, said it was fixed when it wasn't, and kept selling the feature the whole time.

  16. اكتُشف خطأ جديد في ميزة "إخفاء بريدي الإلكتروني" من Apple، وهي جزء من خدمة iCloud+ المدفوعة، يسمح بكشف عناوين البريد الإلكتروني الحقيقية للمستخدمين بدلاً من إخفائها. هذا الخلل الأمني، الذي أبلغ عنه باحث في عام 2025، يمكّن من ربط العنوان المستعار بالبريد الأصلي، مما يقوض الغرض الأساسي للميزة في حماية الخصوصية. على الرغم من إعلان Apple عن معالجة المشكلة، أكد الباحث استمرار الثغرة. تنصح التقارير المستخدمين بالتعامل مع هذه الميزة على أنها غير موثوقة لحين تأكيد الإصلاح.

  19. “A vulnerability in Apple’s “Hide My Email” tool lets almost anyone discover a person’s real email address that is supposed to be hidden by the feature, and Apple has failed to fix it for more than a year, according to a security researcher and 404 Media’s own tests.

    404 Media is not revealing the exact details of the vulnerability because it can still be exploited as of Monday, when 404 Media verified the issue with one of our own hidden email addresses.

    ”Apple Hide My Email is leaking email addresses that are supposed to be hidden. We reported the issue and replication instructions to Apple over a year ago. We don't know why it hasn't been fixed, but we don't feel comfortable waiting any longer. Hide My Email users deserve to know that it may be possible for attackers to discover their hidden email addresses,” Tyler Murphy, the co-founder of EasyOptOuts, which discovered and reported the issue to Apple, told 404 Media.”
