DescriptionCVE.org

Local privilege escalation potentially allowed an attacker to write an arbitrary file with fully controlled content as a privileged user.

AnalysisAI

Local privilege escalation in ESET Endpoint Security and Cyber Security for macOS allows a low-privileged local attacker to write arbitrary files with controlled content as root, leading to full system compromise. The vulnerability affects multiple versions of the macOS security applications and is addressed in a vendor patch. No active exploitation has been reported, and the EPSS score is low at 0.12%, but exploitation would give an attacker complete control over the system.
