Authorization Misconfiguration in ws.stash.app.mac.daemon.helper from STASH
CVE-2024-7457
What is CVE-2024-7457?
The ws.stash.app.mac.daemon.helper tool features a critical authorization misconfiguration that stems from improper usage of macOS’s authorization model. Rather than validating the client's authorization context, the helper utilizes its own elevated root privileges to execute operations. This flaw permits unprivileged clients to perform privileged tasks through XPC, such as manipulating system-wide network settings for SOCKS, HTTP, and HTTPS proxies. Additionally, inadequate code-signing verifications expose the system to exploitation, allowing malicious actors to orchestrate man-in-the-middle attacks via traffic redirection.
