In this video, I'll show you a 0day exploit that allows me to extract all your (local) keychain passwords on macOS Mojave (and lower versions).
Without root or administrator privileges and without password prompts of course.
This is not the first time.
You might remember KeychainStealer from @patrickwardle, released 2017 for macOS High Sierra, which can also steal all your keychain passwords.
While the vulnerability he used is already patched, the one I found still works, even in macOS Mojave.
I won't release this.
The reason is simple: Apple still has no bug bounty program (for macOS), so blame them.
Under #OhBehaveHack (yes, I really like the Austin Powers movies) I will release more videos showing vulnerabilities in the future.
#OhBehaveApple will be for vulnerabilities found in Apple products.
Maybe this forces Apple to open a bug bounty program at some time.
