MacOS/iOS arbitrary port replacement in powerd

powerd (running as root) hosts the com.apple.PowerManagement.control mach service.

It checks in with launchd to get a server port and then wraps that in a CFPort:

pmServerMachPort = _SC_CFMachPortCreateWithPort(
"PowerManagement",
serverPort,
mig_server_callback,
&context);

It also asks to receive dead name notifications for other ports on that same server port:

mach_port_request_notification(
mach_task_self(), // task
notify_port_in, // port that will die
MACH_NOTIFY_DEAD_NAME, // msgid
1, // make-send count
CFMachPortGetPort(pmServerMachPort), // notify port
MACH_MSG_TYPE_MAKE_SEND_ONCE, // notifyPoly
&oldNotify); // previous

mig_server_callback is called off of the mach port run loop source to handle new messages on pmServerMachPort:

static void
mig_server_callback(CFMachPortRef port, void *msg, CFIndex size, void *info)
{
mig_reply_error_t * bufRequest = msg;
mig_reply_error_t * bufReply = CFAllocatorAllocate(
NULL, _powermanagement_subsystem.maxsize, 0);
mach_msg_return_t mr;
int options;

__MACH_PORT_DEBUG(true, "mig_server_callback", serverPort);

/* we have a request message */
(void) pm_mig_demux(&bufRequest->Head, &bufReply->Head);

This passes the raw message to pm_mig_demux:

static boolean_t
pm_mig_demux(
mach_msg_header_t * request,
mach_msg_header_t * reply)
{
mach_dead_name_notification_t *deadRequest =
(mach_dead_name_notification_t *)request;
boolean_t processed = FALSE;

processed = powermanagement_server(request, reply);

if (processed)
return true;

if (MACH_NOTIFY_DEAD_NAME == request->msgh_id)
{
__MACH_PORT_DEBUG(true, "pm_mig_demux: Dead name port should have 1+ send right(s)", deadRequest->not_port);

PMConnectionHandleDeadName(deadRequest->not_port);

__MACH_PORT_DEBUG(true, "pm_mig_demux: Deallocating dead name port", deadRequest->not_port);
mach_port_deallocate(mach_task_self(), deadRequest->not_port);

reply->msgh_bits = 0;
reply->msgh_remote_port = MACH_PORT_NULL;

return TRUE;
}

This passes the message to the MIG-generated code for the powermanagement subsystem, if that fails (because the msgh_id doesn't
match the subsystem for example) then this compares the message's msgh_id field to MACH_NOTIFY_DEAD_NAME.

deadRequest is the message cast to a mach_dead_name_notification_t which is defined like this in mach/notify.h:

typedef struct {
mach_msg_header_t not_header;
NDR_record_t NDR;
mach_port_name_t not_port;/* MACH_MSG_TYPE_PORT_NAME */
mach_msg_format_0_trailer_t trailer;
} mach_dead_name_notification_t;

This is a simple message, not a complex one. not_port is just a completely controlled integer which in this case will get passed directly to
mach_port_deallocate.

The powerd code expects that only the kernel will send a MACH_NOTIFY_DEAD_NAME message but actually anyone can send this and force the privileged process
to drop a reference on a controlled mach port name :)

Multiplexing these two things (notifications and a mach service) onto the same port isn't possible to do safely as the kernel doesn't prevent
user->user spoofing of notification messages - usually this wouldn't be a problem as attackers shouldn't have access to the notification port.

You could use this bug to replace a mach port name in powerd (eg the bootstrap port, an IOService port etc) with a one for which the attacker holds the receieve right.

Since there's still no KDK for 10.12.1 you can test this by attaching to powerd in userspace and setting a breakpoint in pm_mig_demux at the
mach_port_deallocate call and you'll see the controlled value in rsi.
