I've audited the Android kernel in late 2023, and reported 10+ kernel bugs to Google, along with 2 exploits. Today, I'm releasing the first exploit, targeting the Mali GPU on Pixel devices, accessible from an untrusted_app context. github.com/0x36/Pixel_GPU…

I'm sharing two other iOS kernel vulnerabilities reachable from the default app sandbox that don’t require you to open a UserClient: 0x36.github.io/CVE-2022-32898/

CVE-2022-32932 is another vulnerability I discovered in the ANE kernel interface; this is a double fetch issue that resulted in an interesting OOB write. 0x36.github.io/CVE-2022-32932/

+16 kernel bugs I reported to Apple have been fixed in iOS 16/16.1. I'll give a talk on how I chained some bugs to achieve kernel r/w at #POC2022 next month, and the kernel exploit for iOS 15 will be released along with a some other high impact vulns after the conference.

My favorite IDA 8.0 feature so far: artificial Obj-C method imports

In iOS 15.5 beta 3, Apple removed IOMallocAligned(KHEAP_DEFAULT,...) from IOSharedDataQueue/IODataQueue::initWithCapacity() ( now uses kernel_memory_allocate() with KMA_DATA flag). It was an elegant technique to groom the kernel default heap with user controlled data. RIP

Looks like Ghidra does not support LC_DYLD_CHAINED_FIXUPS for macOS M1 KEXTs, here is a dirty script to fix it . gist.github.com/0x36/5ea657f08…

I've updated oob_events exploit and it should work fine in on A12+ devices (with 60 % of success rate) and ~95% in devices with lower ram size i.e A10. Tested on iPhone 11 and iPhone 7.
