Security Bug: Dependency on xz 5.6.1 #1380

Closed prog-nick closed 7 months ago

prog-nick commented 7 months ago

There is a transitive dependency on xz version 5.6.1 which is known to exploitable and/or vulnerable to security issues. Rectangle currently installs xz version 5.6.1 which is known to be vulnerable.

Please update this dependency so I can install on my work computer! Thank you so much for the great software.

macOS version: 14.4.1 Rectangle version: 0.77 Logs if applicable (In Rectangle menu, hold option, "View Logging..."):

Thanks for reporting this.

How is this determined? Is this output from a security scan?

I've updated Rectangle's dependency on Sparkle for a security patch from yesterday. You can download it from this pre-release: https://github.com/rxhanson/Rectangle/releases/tag/v0.78.

If you can scan it or get your security team to scan it and verify the output passes, please let me know.

I will roll it out as soon as a Sparkle issue for generating the update xml gets a fix or workaround: https://github.com/sparkle-project/Sparkle/issues/2554

Looks good

Just to follow up. I think this Issue was mistakenly created. The xz vulnerability was from a scan of another machine. Apologies!! Again, thanks for the awesome software.
