Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-08-26 13:15 - Updated: 2025-08-26 13:41
Severity ?
4.8 (Medium) - CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
Invoice Ninja's configuration on macOS, specifically the presence of entitlement "com.apple.security.get-task-allow", allows local attackers with unprivileged access (e.g. via a malicious application) to attach a debugger, read or modify the process memory, inject code in the application's context despite being signed with Hardened Runtime and bypass Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC). Acquired resource access is limited to previously granted permissions by the user. Access to other resources beyond granted permissions requires user interaction with a system prompt asking for permission. According to Apple documentation, when a non-root user runs an app with the debugging tool entitlement, the system presents an authorization dialog asking for a system administrator's credentials. Since there is no prompt when the target process has "get-task-allow" entitlement, the presence of this entitlement was decided to be treated as a vulnerability because it removes one step needed to perform an attack. This issue was fixed in version 5.0.175

      "value": "La configuraci\u00f3n de Invoice Ninja en macOS, en concreto la presencia del permiso \"com.apple.security.get-task-allow\", permite a atacantes locales con acceso sin privilegios (por ejemplo, mediante una aplicaci\u00f3n maliciosa) adjuntar un depurador, leer o modificar la memoria del proceso, inyectar c\u00f3digo en el contexto de la aplicaci\u00f3n a pesar de estar firmada con Hardened Runtime y eludir la Transparencia, el Consentimiento y el Control (TCC). El acceso a los recursos adquiridos se limita a los permisos previamente otorgados por el usuario. El acceso a otros recursos, adem\u00e1s de los permisos otorgados, requiere la interacci\u00f3n del usuario con un mensaje del sistema solicitando permiso. Seg\u00fan la documentaci\u00f3n de Apple, cuando un usuario no root ejecuta una aplicaci\u00f3n con el permiso de la herramienta de depuraci\u00f3n, el sistema muestra un cuadro de di\u00e1logo de autorizaci\u00f3n solicitando las credenciales de un administrador del sistema. Dado que no se muestra ning\u00fan mensaje cuando el proceso objetivo tiene el permiso \"get-task-allow\", se decidi\u00f3 considerar esta vulnerabilidad porque elimina un paso necesario para realizar un ataque. Este problema se solucion\u00f3 en la versi\u00f3n 5.0.175."
