A permissions issue existed. This issue was addressed with improved permission validation. This issue is fixed in Security Update 2021-005 Catalina, macOS Big Sur 11.6. A local attacker may be able to elevate their privileges.
The product does not preserve permissions or incorrectly preserves permissions when copying, restoring, or sharing objects, which can cause them to have less restrictive permissions than intended.
