Se solucionó un problema de acceso fuera de los límites mejorando la verificación de los límites. Este problema se solucionó en visionOS 1.2, macOS Sonoma 14.5, tvOS 17.5, iOS 17.5 y iPadOS 17.5. Un atacante remoto puede provocar la finalización inesperada de una aplicación o la ejecución de código arbitrario.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Apple macOS. Interaction with the Metal framework is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the implementation.
The specific flaw exists within the AMDRadeonX6000MTLDriver. Crafted data in a KTX file can trigger a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
