CVE-2024-23201 patched in macOS Ventura 13.6.5 (libxpc: "An app may be able to cause a denial-of-service") is not very interesting:
Diffing launchd from 13.6.5 against 13.6.4 shows it added an extra error:
"caller (PID %d) is not allowed to signal target process"
That matches the description: you can't do much with signals other than force-quitting an app, so I assume that's the "denial of service" part.
