This is fixed in 2.24.6: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/releases/tag/2.24.6

See also https://discourse.nixos.org/t/vulnerability-in-nix-2-24/5190... for updates.

Can someone link to the actual fix? It's a bit hard to navigate the git history for me...

How can such a simple code change fixes such a big vulnerability?
Or maybe it's https://github.com/NixOS/nix/commit/35575873813f60fff26f27a6...

the commit log is tad unclear and the GHSA writer didn't bother themselves with linking the offending code

Thanks, that one seems likely.

Hmm, though this seems to affect the case-hack thingy only, which seems like a macos-specific feature...
