Title
macOS Rocket.Chat: TCC Policy Bypass via Dylib Injection Due to Missing Code Signing Flags and Dangerous Entitlements
Summary
The macOS Rocket.Chat application is affected by a vulnerability that allows bypassing Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC) policies, enabling the exploitation or abuse of permissions specified in its entitlements (e.g., microphone, camera, automation, network client). Since Rocket.Chat was not signed with the Hardened Runtime nor set to enforce Library Validation, it is vulnerable to DYLIB injection attacks, which can lead to unauthorized actions or escalation of permissions. Consequently, an attacker gains capabilities that are not permitted by default under the Sandbox and its application profile.

Dado que Rocket.Chat no se firm\u00f3 con el entorno de ejecuci\u00f3n reforzado ni se configur\u00f3 para aplicar la validaci\u00f3n de librer\u00edas, es vulnerable a ataques de inyecci\u00f3n DYLIB, que pueden provocar acciones no autorizadas o la escalada de permisos. En consecuencia, un atacante obtiene capacidades no permitidas por defecto en el entorno de pruebas y su perfil de aplicaci\u00f3n."
