Vulnerability details

Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in Electron Fuses in Logitech Options Plus version 1.60.496306 on macOS allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via insecure Electron Fuses configuration.

CWE(s)

Related Threats

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1055 Process Injection Stealth
Adversaries may inject code into processes in order to evade process-based defenses as well as possibly elevate privileges.
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution Execution
Adversaries may exploit software vulnerabilities in client applications to execute code.
T1218.015 Electron Applications Stealth
Adversaries may abuse components of the Electron framework to execute malicious code.
Why these techniques?

The vulnerability enables arbitrary code execution through code injection exploiting insecure Electron Fuses configuration in the Logitech Options Plus Electron app on macOS, facilitating process injection (T1055), exploitation for client execution (T1203), and proxy execution via Electron applications (T1218.015).

Likely Mitigating Controls AI

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

addresses: CWE-94

Makes persistent code injection into loaded programs impossible when the executable image itself resides on hardware-protected read-only media.

addresses: CWE-94

Dynamically generated code can be produced and executed inside the isolated chamber, preventing host compromise from code-injection payloads.

addresses: CWE-94

Validates inputs used in dynamic code generation to block injected directives.

addresses: CWE-94

Directly prevents execution of attacker-supplied code written into data memory regions.
