According to news on January 15, Microsoft Threat Intelligence discovered a new macOS vulnerability CVE-2024-44243, which may allow attackers to bypass Apple System Integrity Protection (SIP) in macOS by loading third-party kernel extensions. SIP is a security technology that limits the execution of operations that may compromise the integrity of the system; Therefore, SIP bypass affects the overall security of the operating system. Bypassing SIP can have serious consequences, such as increasing the likelihood that attackers and malware authors can successfully install rootkits, create persistent malware, bypass Transparency, Consent, and Controls (TCC), and expand the attack surface for other techniques and vulnerabilities .
