CVE-2024-46060: Anaconda ANACONDA3

High severity, CVSS 7.8. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Anaconda3 macOS installers before 2024.06-1 contain a local privilege escalation vulnerability when installed outside the user's home directory. During installation, world-writable files are created and executed with root privileges. This allows a local low-privileged user to inject arbitrary commands, leading to code execution as the root user.

Affected products

  • Anaconda ANACONDA3: before 2024.06-1 (fixed in 2024.06-1)
