Technical details

The Slate Digital Connect privileged helper tool (com.slatedigital.connect.privileged.helper.tool) exposes an XPC service that performs client validation using the process identifier (PID) of the connecting client. Specifically, it uses the PID to retrieve code-signing information via SecCodeCopyGuestWithAttributes. This implementation is vulnerable to a Time-of-Check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition because PIDs can be recycled by the operating system. A local attacker can initiate a connection and then quickly replace their process with a trusted binary, causing the helper tool to validate the trusted process's signature while granting privileged access to the attacker's original request. This allows for arbitrary command execution as root. As of the advisory date, the vendor has not released a patch.
