A vulnerability in macOS allows an attacker to silently replace the main executable of any application downloaded from the web without requiring elevated privileges. As a result, trusted applications can be made to execute attacker-controlled code without triggering security warnings when relaunched. Apple assessed the reported behaviour as not requiring a security fix.
