CVE-2026-24063 · published 7 months ago
Summary

When installing plugins, Arturia Software Center leaves a script on your Mac that can be edited by anyone. If an attacker changes this script, they could gain elevated access to your Mac. To avoid this, do not install plugins from untrusted sources, and consider reinstalling plugins using a more secure method.

When a plugin is installed using the Arturia Software Center (MacOS), it also installs an uninstall.sh bash script in a root owned path. This script is written to disk with the file permissions 777, meaning it is writable by any user. When uninstalling a plugin via the Arturia Software Center the Privileged Helper gets instructed to execute this script. When the bash script is manipulated by an attacker this scenario will lead to privilege escalation.
