If you installed xz on macOS using brew, then you have
xz (XZ Utils) 5.6.1
liblzma 5.6.1
which are within the release target for the vuln. As elsewhere in these comments, people say macOS effect is uncertain. If concerned you can revert to 5.4.6 with
brew upgrade xz
- neodypsis 3y agoIt's been reverted now: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/9a0603b474804ef76cef17cf1bc90397996088bb/Formula/x/xz.rb https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/9a0603b474804...
- keepamovin 3y agoYeah it was when I posted the comment too. That's why you could type brew upgrade xz and it went back to 5.4.6 I guess? But it might have been around that time, cutting it fine, not out for everybody. I don't know. Comment race condition haha! :)
- pjl 3y agoSimilarly if you're using MacPorts, make sure to sync and upgrade xz if you have it installed. 5.6.1 was available for a few days and just rolled back ~20 minutes ago: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/a1388aee09c9e921e3a9d47cf9d37e5d3f3c10ad https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/a1388aee09...
- quinncom 3y agoThank you for this tip. `brew upgrade xz` worked. I was going to uninstall but it's used by so many things… brew uninstall xz Error: Refusing to uninstall /opt/homebrew/Cellar/xz/5.6.1 because it is required by aom, composer, curl, ffmpeg, gcc, gd, ghostscript, glib, google-cloud-sdk, grc, harfbuzz, httpie, img2pdf, jbig2enc, jpeg-xl, leptonica, libarchive, libavif, libheif, libraw, libtiff, libzip, little-cms2, numpy, ocrmypdf, openblas, openjpeg, openvino, php, pillow, pipx, pngquant, poppler, python@3.11, python@3.12, rsync, tesseract, tesseract-lang, unpaper, webp, wp-cli, yt-dlp and zstd, which are currently installed.
