Fixed issues

  • macOS and Linux:
    • Addressed a local privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2026-34354). This issue could allow an unprivileged local user to gain root privileges on macOS and Linux systems. Detailed information regarding this issue will be published at a later date.
  • Windows:
    • Improved security hardening against unauthorized file actions. Addressed a low-risk security bug that could allow an unprivileged user to trigger the creation of a diagnostic zip file in arbitrary system locations.
