SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps security practitioners analyze and work through macOS protection layers that block authorized testing, including TCC, Gatekeeper, SIP, sandboxing, code signing, and entitlements.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Protection Analysis: Identifies which macOS control is preventing access or execution and what context is required to evaluate it safely.
  • Version-Aware Bypass Guidance: Maps techniques to specific macOS releases and protection types so assessments can account for changed behavior across versions.
  • Operational Playbooks: Covers persistence, inspection, and decision-tree guidance for red-team and penetration-testing workflows.
  • Use Case: A tester needs to determine whether a target Mac is vulnerable to TCC inheritance, Gatekeeper quarantine removal, or SIP-related bypass paths during an authorized engagement.

Quick Start

Ask the Skill to assess an authorized macOS target and summarize the most relevant protection layer, version-specific bypass options, and validation steps.

FAQPage Schema
How do I bypass macOS TCC and SIP restrictions during an authorized red-team engagement?

Bypassing macOS TCC and SIP requires analyzing the specific protection layer blocking access and mapping techniques to the target's macOS version. Authorized assessments evaluate TCC inheritance, SIP bypass paths, and entitlements to ensure safe, version-aware execution.

What is the best way to analyze macOS Gatekeeper and code-signing protections for penetration testing?

Analyzing macOS Gatekeeper and code-signing protections involves identifying the specific control preventing execution and applying version-aware bypass guidance. This includes evaluating quarantine removal and entitlement analysis within authorized red-team workflows.

Does macOS sandbox bypass guidance account for differences across specific macOS releases?

Yes, macOS sandbox bypass guidance accounts for version differences by mapping techniques to specific macOS releases and protection types. This version-aware approach ensures assessments account for changed behavior across versions during authorized testing.

How do I plan persistence on a Mac while considering multiple security layers like TCC and sandboxing?

Planning persistence on a Mac requires operational playbooks covering inspection and decision-tree guidance across TCC, sandbox, and code-signing layers. This ensures persistence planning satisfies safe, version-aware red-team workflow requirements.

Why does my macOS code execution fail when hitting sandbox or entitlement restrictions?

macOS code execution fails when hitting sandbox or entitlement restrictions because protection layers block unauthorized access. Performing command-level inspection and protection analysis determines which control prevents execution and identifies safe bypass options.
