Summary
MLX is an array framework (a software library for handling arrays of data in machine learning) for Apple silicon computers. Before version 0.29.4, the software had a heap buffer overflow (a memory safety bug where the program reads beyond allocated memory) in its file-loading function when processing malicious NumPy .npy files (a common data format in machine learning), which could crash the program or leak sensitive information.
Solution / Mitigation
Update MLX to version 0.29.4 or later. The vulnerability has been patched in this version.
