| | LaunchDaemon (or LaunchAgent) Hijacking is a MacOS privilege escalation and persistence technique. It involves abusing insecure file/folder permissions to replace legitimately installed, misconfigured LaunchDaemons with malicious code. I first spotted this issue affecting the OSQuery installer but went looking and found multiple other products with the same problem. This isn't a novel technique (it's briefly mentioned in T1543.004) but I was surprised to find it so rarely talked about. Example - Hijacking the OSQuery LaunchDaemon ?? I've already disclosed this issue to the OSQuery team and they kindly let me use it as an example in this post.
