MacDirtyCow
App developers can make special sideloadable apps that take advantage of the MacDirtyCow bug on iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.7 and 16.0-16.1.2. Apps that exploit this bug can make cosmetic and functional changes to the operating system if it’s within the bounds of memory that a sandboxed app can access.
Follow along as we provide ongoing coverage on the latest MacDirtyCow developments.
