Vulnerability from variot

An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. macOS before 10.13.4 is affected. The issue involves the "kext tools" component. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted app. Apple macOS is prone to multiple security vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, execute arbitrary code, obtain elevated privileges and perform unauthorized action; this may aid in launching further attacks. Apple macOS High Sierra is a set of dedicated operating systems developed by Apple (Apple) for Mac computers. kext tools is one of the GUI tools for installing drivers
