macOS PID Reuse
PID 重用
当 macOS XPC 服务基于 PID 而不是 审计令牌 来检查调用进程时,就容易受到 PID 重用攻击的影响。这种攻击基于 竞争条件,其中一个 利用程序将会 向 XPC 服务发送消息,滥用功能,然后立即执行 posix_spawn(NULL, target_binary, NULL, &attr, target_argv, environ)
与 允许的 二进制文件。
这个函数将使 允许的二进制文件拥有 PID,但 恶意 XPC 消息 将在此之前发送。因此,如果 XPC 服务在执行 posix_spawn
后使用 PID 进行 身份验证 并在 检查之后,它会认为消息来自一个 授权的 进程。
攻击示例
如果您发现函数 shouldAcceptNewConnection
或其调用的函数调用了 processIdentifier
而没有调用 auditToken
。这很可能意味着它正在验证进程 PID 而不是审计令牌。
例如,如下图所示(摘自参考资料):

检查此示例攻击(同样摘自参考资料)以查看攻击的两个部分:
一个生成多个 fork
每个 fork 将在发送消息后立即执行
posix_spawn
向 XPC 服务发送 有效载荷。
为了使攻击生效,重要的是 export`` ``
OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES
或将其放入攻击中:
asm(".section __DATA,__objc_fork_ok\n"
"empty:\n"
".no_dead_strip empty\n");
第一种选项是使用**NSTasks
