The issue was addressed with improved memory handling. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma 14.1, iOS 17.1 and iPadOS 17.1, iOS 16.7.2 and iPadOS 16.7.2, macOS Ventura 13.6.1. An app may be able to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
