Privilege Escalation | macOS Malware & The Path to Root Part 1 - SentinelLabs
In this two-part series, we take a look at privilege escalation on macOS. In Part 1, we look at some of the vulnerabilities that have been discovered by security researchers in recent versions of Apple’s Desktop OS, focusing on those that have been turned into reliable exploits. We draw conclusions for enterprise and end users alike based on this review. In Part 2, we switch from researchers to attackers and explore both how and why the methodology of macOS threat actors takes quite a different path from that of the research community.
## What is Privilege Escalation?
Let’s start by defining our terms. Whenever code executes, it does so within the context of a user who invokes it. Technically, users need not always actually be people, but for our purposes here we’ll stick to the simple c
