| Title | alaneuler batteryKid v2.1 Missing Authentication for Critical Function |
|---|
| Description | batteryKid for macOS up to 2,1 registers a root-privileged XPC helper (me.alaneuler.batteryKid.PrivilegeHelper) that unconditionally accepts incoming connections without client validation. The helper exposes methods to read and write System Management Controller (SMC) keys, allowing any local process to invoke privileged hardware operations. |
