I just discovered this and would consider it a huge security risk if the app is doing anything with the pasted data in the background.
Basically, I had copied something to the clipboard in Safari. I then opened the “Geometry Lite” app and caught a glimpse of a paste operation, see attached screenshot.
It appears that the data on the clipboard automatically gets pasted to the app as soon as the app is launched. What Happens from there is anyones guess. I have tested this with copying something from notes as well and had the same result, also see attached.
I am guessing other apps may have the same issue. It happens so fast on the app, you barely have time to catch it. I had to do a quick screenshot to verify and it took me a few tries..... did I just see what I think I saw???? YES, YES I DID!!😳
This seems like an obvious risk that Apple has hopefully resolved on the back end. However, I have “a vote of no confidence” after what I just witnessed….
Can anyone confirm with this or other apps??
