CVE-2024-23742 describes a critical remote code execution vulnerability in Loom on macOS, specifically versions 0.196.1 and earlier. This flaw, rated 9.8 CVSS, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by manipulating the RunAsNode and enableNodeClilnspectArguments settings. While the vendor disputes the remote nature, claiming local access is required, the potential impact is high across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Currently, there is no public exploit code available (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and it is not listed on CISA's KEV catalog, though it has garnered significant community discussion.
