| CVE-2023-41902 | An XPC misconfiguration vulnerability in CoreCode MacUpdater before 2.3.8, and 3.x before 3.1.2, allows attackers to escalate privileges by crafting malicious .pkg files. |
| CVE-2022-22676 | An event handler validation issue in the XPC Services API was addressed by removing the service. This issue is fixed in macOS Monterey 12.2. An application may be able to delete files for which it does not have permission. |
| CVE-2021-41388 | Netskope client prior to 89.x on macOS is impacted by a local privilege escalation vulnerability. The XPC implementation of nsAuxiliarySvc process does not perform validation on new connections before accepting the connection. Thus any low privileged user can connect and call external methods defined in XPC service as root, elevating their privilege to the highest level. |
| CVE-2020-3974 | VMware Fusion (11.x before 11.5.5), VMware Remote Console for Mac (11.x and prior before 11.2.0 ) and Horizon Client for Mac (5.x and prior before 5.4.3) contain a privilege escalation vulnerability due to improper XPC Client validation. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow attackers with normal user privileges to escalate their privileges to root on the system where Fusion, VMware Remote Console for Mac or Horizon Client for Mac is installed. |
| CVE-2020-27614 | AnyDesk for macOS versions 6.0.2 and older have a vulnerability in the XPC interface that does not properly validate client requests and allows local privilege escalation. |
| CVE-2020-25736 | Acronis True Image 2019 update 1 through 2021 update 1 on macOS allows local privilege escalation due to an insecure XPC service configuration. |
| CVE-2020-25533 | An issue was discovered in Malwarebytes before 4.0 on macOS. A malicious application was able to perform a privileged action within the Malwarebytes launch daemon. The privileged service improperly validated XPC connections by relying on the PID instead of the audit token. An attacker can construct a situation where the same PID is used for running two different programs at different times, by leveraging a race condition during crafted use of posix_spawn. |
| CVE-2020-15495 | Acronis True Image 2019 update 1 through 2020 on macOS allows local privilege escalation due to an insecure XPC service configuration. |
| CVE-2020-15349 | BinaryNights ForkLift 3.x before 3.4 has a local privilege escalation vulnerability because the privileged helper tool implements an XPC interface that allows file operations to any process (copy, move, delete) as root and changing permissions. |
| CVE-2020-14978 | An issue was discovered in F-Secure SAFE 17.7 on macOS. Due to incorrect client version verification, an attacker can connect to a privileged XPC service, and execute privileged commands on the system. NOTE: the attacker needs to execute code on an already compromised machine. |
| CVE-2020-14977 | An issue was discovered in F-Secure SAFE 17.7 on macOS. The XPC services use the PID to identify the connecting client, which allows an attacker to perform a PID reuse attack and connect to a privileged XPC service, and execute privileged commands on the system. NOTE: the attacker needs to execute code on an already compromised machine. |
| CVE-2019-13013 | Little Snitch versions 4.3.0 to 4.3.2 have a local privilege escalation vulnerability in their privileged helper tool. The privileged helper tool implements an XPC interface which is available to any process and allows directory listings and copying files as root. |
| CVE-2018-9105 | NordVPN 3.3.10 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability. The vulnerability stems from its privileged helper tool's implemented XPC service. This XPC service is responsible for receiving and processing new OpenVPN connection requests from the main application. Unfortunately this XPC service is not protected, which allows arbitrary applications to connect and send it XPC messages. An attacker can send a crafted XPC message to the privileged helper tool requesting it make a new OpenVPN connection. Because he or she controls the contents of the XPC message, the attacker can specify the location of the openvpn executable, which could point to something malicious they control located on disk. Without validation of the openvpn executable, this will give the attacker code execution in the context of the privileged helper tool. |
| CVE-2018-8739 | VPN Unlimited 4.2.0 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability in its privileged helper tool. The privileged helper tool implements an XPC interface, which allows arbitrary applications to execute system commands as root. |
| CVE-2018-8076 | ZenMate 1.5.4 for macOS suffers from a type confusion vulnerability within the com.zenmate.chron-xpc LaunchDaemon component. The LaunchDaemon implements an XPC service that uses an insecure XPC API for accessing data from an inbound XPC message. This could potentially result in an XPC object of the wrong type being passed as the first argument to the xpc_connection_create_from_endpoint function if controlled by an attacker. In recent versions of macOS and OS X, Apple has implemented an internal check to prevent such XPC API abuse from occurring, thus making this vulnerability only result in a denial of service if exploited by an attacker. |
| CVE-2018-7716 | PrivateVPN 2.0.31 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability with its com.privat.vpn.helper privileged helper tool. This privileged helper tool implements an XPC service that allows arbitrary installed applications to connect and send messages. The XPC service extracts the config string from the corresponding XPC message. This string is supposed to point to an internal OpenVPN configuration file. If a new connection has not already been established, an attacker can send the XPC service a malicious XPC message with the config string pointing at an OpenVPN configuration file that he or she controls. In the configuration file, an attacker can specify a dynamic library plugin that should run for every new VPN connection. This plugin will execute code in the context of the root user. |
| CVE-2018-7715 | PrivateVPN 2.0.31 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability with its com.privat.vpn.helper privileged helper tool. This privileged helper tool implements an XPC service that allows arbitrary installed applications to connect and send messages. The XPC service extracts the path string from the corresponding XPC message. This string is supposed to point to PrivateVPN's internal openvpn binary. If a new connection has not already been established, an attacker can send the XPC service a malicious XPC message with the path string pointing at a binary that he or she controls. This results in the execution of arbitrary code as the root user. |
| CVE-2018-7493 | CactusVPN through 6.0 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability in its privileged helper tool. The privileged helper tool implements an XPC interface, which allows arbitrary applications to execute system commands as root. |
| CVE-2018-7311 | ** DISPUTED ** PrivateVPN 2.0.31 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability. The software installs a privileged helper tool that runs as the root user. This privileged helper tool is installed as a LaunchDaemon and implements an XPC service. The XPC service is responsible for handling new VPN connection operations via the main PrivateVPN application. The privileged helper tool creates new VPN connections by executing the openvpn binary located in the /Applications/PrivateVPN.app/Contents/Resources directory. The openvpn binary can be overwritten by the default user, which allows an attacker that has already installed malicious software as the default user to replace the binary. When a new VPN connection is established, the privileged helper tool will launch this malicious binary, thus allowing an attacker to execute code as the root user. NOTE: the vendor has reportedly indicated that this behavior is "an acceptable part of their software." |
| CVE-2018-6823 | In the VPN client in Mailbutler Shimo before 4.1.5.1 on macOS, the com.feingeist.shimo.helper tool LaunchDaemon implements an unprotected XPC service that can be abused to execute scripts as root. |
| CVE-2018-6822 | In PureVPN 6.0.1 on macOS, HelperTool LaunchDaemon implements an unprotected XPC service that can be abused to execute system commands as root. |
| CVE-2018-18859 | Multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities have been identified in the LiquidVPN client through 1.37 for macOS. An attacker can communicate with an unprotected XPC service and directly execute arbitrary OS commands as root or load a potentially malicious kernel extension because com.smr.liquidvpn.OVPNHelper uses the value of the "tun_path" or "tap_path" pathname in a kextload() call. |
| CVE-2018-18858 | Multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities have been identified in the LiquidVPN client through 1.37 for macOS. An attacker can communicate with an unprotected XPC service and directly execute arbitrary OS commands as root or load a potentially malicious kernel extension because com.smr.liquidvpn.OVPNHelper uses the system function to execute the "tun_path" or "tap_path" pathname within a shell command. |
| CVE-2018-18857 | Multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities have been identified in the LiquidVPN client through 1.37 for macOS. An attacker can communicate with an unprotected XPC service and directly execute arbitrary OS commands as root or load a potentially malicious kernel extension because com.smr.liquidvpn.OVPNHelper uses the system function to execute the "command_line" parameter as a shell command. |
| CVE-2018-18856 | Multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities have been identified in the LiquidVPN client through 1.37 for macOS. An attacker can communicate with an unprotected XPC service and directly execute arbitrary OS commands as root or load a potentially malicious kernel extension because com.smr.liquidvpn.OVPNHelper uses the system function to execute the "openvpncmd" parameter as a shell command. |
| CVE-2018-10192 | IPVanish 3.0.11 for macOS suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability. The `com.ipvanish.osx.vpnhelper` LaunchDaemon implements an insecure XPC service that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as the root user. IPVanish uses a third-party library for converting `xpc_object_t` types in to `NSObject` types for sending XPC messages. When IPVanish establishes a new connection, the following XPC message is sent to the `com.ipvanish.osx.vpnhelper` LaunchDaemon. Because the XPC service itself does not validate an incoming connection, any application installed on the operating system can send it XPC messages. In the case of the "connect" message, an attacker could manipulate the `OpenVPNPath` to point at a malicious binary on the system. The `com.ipvanish.osx.vpnhelper` would receive the VPNHelperConnect command, and then execute the malicious binary as the root user. |
| CVE-2018-10171 | Kromtech MacKeeper 3.20.4 suffers from a root privilege escalation vulnerability through its `com.mackeeper.AdwareAnalyzer.AdwareAnalyzerPrivilegedHelper` component. The AdwareAnalzyerPrivilegedHelper tool implements an XPC service that allows an unprivileged application to connect and execute shell scripts as the root user. |
| CVE-2017-7004 | An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.3.2 is affected. macOS before 10.12.5 is affected. The issue involves the "Security" component. A race condition allows attackers to bypass intended entitlement restrictions for sending XPC messages via a crafted app. |
| CVE-2017-17809 | In Golden Frog VyprVPN before 2.15.0.5828 for macOS, the vyprvpnservice launch daemon has an unprotected XPC service that allows attackers to update the underlying OpenVPN configuration and the arguments passed to the OpenVPN binary when executed. An attacker can abuse this vulnerability by forcing the VyprVPN application to load a malicious dynamic library every time a new connection is made. |
| CVE-2016-1760 | The XPC Services API in LaunchServices in Apple iOS before 9.3 allows attackers to bypass intended event-handler restrictions and modify an arbitrary app's events via a crafted app. |
| CVE-2015-3795 | libxpc in Apple iOS before 8.4.1 and OS X before 10.10.5 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted app that sends a malformed XPC message. |
