From Information to Intelligence

David Maynor as release an impressive article, on the e-zine Uninformed that details the wifi OSX exploit he has shown in the Black hat conference. It is called “OS X Kernel-mode Exploitation in a Weekend”. Technicals details seems accurate even if I havn’t yet found the time to verify them. The exploitation technique is quite impressive since it involves controling the structure to overwrite a function pointer. This is achived by crafting a beacon packet. It is indeed a nice exploit that deserve to be studied.
