Análisis y mitigación de vulnerabilidades

CVE-2024-54471 is a security vulnerability affecting macOS systems that was discovered by Noah Gregory (wts.dev). The vulnerability was disclosed and patched in December 2024, affecting macOS Sonoma 14.7.1 and macOS Ventura 13.7.1. The issue allows a malicious application to potentially leak a user's credentials through insufficient entitlement checks (Apple Support, Apple Support).

The vulnerability exists in the NetAuth component of macOS and is related to insufficient entitlement checks in the system's credential handling mechanism. The issue has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 5.5 (MEDIUM) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, indicating local access is required, low attack complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction needed, and potential for high confidentiality impact (NVD).

The vulnerability allows a malicious application to potentially leak a user's credentials, posing a significant risk to user privacy and security. The high confidentiality impact rating suggests that the vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive credential information (Apple Support).

Apple has addressed this vulnerability by implementing additional entitlement checks in macOS Sonoma 14.7.1 and macOS Ventura 13.7.1. Users are advised to update their systems to these patched versions to protect against potential credential leakage (Apple Support, Apple Support).

The vulnerability has garnered attention in the cybersecurity community, with researchers and security professionals discussing its implications. Security researchers have highlighted the importance of proper entitlement checks in protecting user credentials (GBHackers).
