       | CVE-2025-24252 and CVE-2025-24132 are two examples. Doing a
       | search for "Oligo" in release notes gives various other results,
       | e.g.,
       | 
       | * https://support.apple.com/en-ca/122374
       | 
       | Apple fixed their stuff, but third-parties who used their SDK
       | will have to issue updates as well.

       | Very curious about the exploitation of CVE-2025-24252, a use-
       | after-free (UAF) using which they achieved zero-click RCE on
       | MacOS. This is inspite of ASLR and heap exploitation mitigations
       | in place to mitigate such vulnerability classes

         | On ASLR: you might use the UAF to access memory regions you
         | shouldn't have access to. By reading the contents, they can
         | potentially leak pointers to a critical library (e.g., libc),
         | allowing them to calculate the offsets to bypass ASLR.
         | 
         | On heap protection: if you spray the heap with predictable data
         | patterns you can improve your chance of landing a useful
         | address, even with ASLR in place

         | macOS 12 is EOL and is no longer receiving security updates.

         | There's a strong chance it's vulnerable, too
