This issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in macOS Golden Gate 27. An app may bypass Gatekeeper checks.
AnalysisAI
A locally installed application on macOS versions prior to macOS Golden Gate 27 can bypass Gatekeeper code-origin and notarization checks, weakening the platform control that is supposed to stop untrusted apps from launching. The flaw is assessed at CVSS 4.4 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N), meaning it requires local presence and normal user privileges, and the resulting impact is limited to partial confidentiality and integrity loss rather than code execution or denial of service. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires local presence of a malicious app on the target macOS system running with normal user privileges (AV:L, PR:L, no user interaction needed to trigger the bypass itself); the app must be crafted to evade Gatekeeper's code-origin/notarization enforcement. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuinely low-priority issue despite the 'Authentication Bypass' tag. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: macOS Golden Gate 27, documented in Apple support article 149035 (https://support.apple.com/en-us/149035); upgrading to macOS Golden Gate 27 or later is the only complete fix and should be prioritized for hosts that routinely run untrusted or side-loaded applications. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
