Apple OS X 10.10.5 – ‘rootsh’ Local Privilege Escalation
## rootsh rootsh is a local privilege escalation targeting OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 build 14F27. It exploits [CVE-2016-1758] and [CVE-2016-1828], two vulnerabilities in XNU that were patched in OS X El Capitan [10.11.4] and [10.11.5]. rootsh will not work on platforms with SMAP enabled. [CVE-2016-1758]: https://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2016-1758 [CVE-2016-1828]: https://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2016-1828 [10.11.4]: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206167 [10.11.5]: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206567 ### CVE-2016-1758 CVE-2016-1758 is an information leak caused by copying out uninitialized bytes of kernel stack to user space. By comparing leaked kernel pointers with fixed reference addresses it is possible to recover the kernel slide. ### CVE-2016-1828 CVE-2016-1828 is a use-after-free during object deserialization. By passing a crafted binary-serialized dictionary into the kernel, it is possible to trigger a virtual method invocation on an object with a controlled vtable pointer. ### License The rootsh code is released into the public domain. As a courtesy I ask that if you use any of this code in another project you attribute it to me. Download: https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb-bin-sploits/-/raw/main/bin-sploits/44239.zip |
