This module provides a foundation in macOS architecture, memory management, and system calls, essential knowledge for understanding macOS security and identifying potential vulnerabilities.

Learn to utilize debugging and tracing tools like Hopper to analyze macOS applications and uncover security flaws.

Master the art of writing shellcode for macOS, enabling you to execute custom code on compromised systems.

Explore techniques to inject dynamic libraries (dylibs) into macOS processes, allowing you to modify or extend their behavior.

Understand the Mach microkernel, the core of macOS, and learn how to inject code into Mach tasks to bypass security restrictions.

Learn how to intercept and modify function calls within macOS applications, enabling you to manipulate their behavior for offensive purposes.

Understand XPC, an interprocess communication mechanism in macOS, and learn how to exploit XPC vulnerabilities to escalate privileges and gain unauthorized access.

Explore techniques to break out of macOS sandboxes, which are designed to restrict the actions of untrusted applications.

Discover how to exploit symbolic links (symlinks) in macOS to gain unauthorized access to files and directories or escalate privileges.
