Local ASLR bypass
Published May 12, 2025 · Updated Jul 25, 2026
Incorrect authorization in Libinfo in Apple macOS before 13.7.6, 14.7.6, or 15.5 allows local users to bypass ASLR through an app. Apple has not published which Libinfo check accepts or returns untrusted state incorrectly. Execution requires a local app and user interaction; the bypass weakens address randomization but does not alone grant code execution.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=0 <13.7.6
- Affected versionversion=0 <14.7.6
- Affected versionversion=0 <15.5
