CVE-2018-10470 affects Little Snitch versions 4.0 to 4.0.6 on macOS, stemming from its failure to validate all architectures within fat binaries. This vulnerability allows an attacker to craft a malicious fat binary that Little Snitch misinterprets as unsigned during execution, while incorrectly reporting a valid signature on disk, potentially confusing users about software authenticity. Rated Medium (CVSS 5.3), it has a low impact on integrity (I:L) and does not require user interaction or privileges, but could lead to user confusion. There is no known public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) and it is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, though it has received some community discussion and media coverage.
