Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Pixar Renderman version 22.3.0

Description A local privilege escalation issue exists in the Install Helper tool of Pixar Renderman for Mac OS X. This allows a user with local access to escalate their privileges to root, given they have initial access to the machine for a successful exploit.

Recommendations For Pixar Renderman version 22.3.0, consider restricting access to the Install Helper tool until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limiting local access to the machine can also minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
