Recycling Exploits in MacOS and Pirating Audiobooks

We cover a comical saga of vulnerabilities and variants from incomplete fixes in macOS, as well as a bypass of Chrome's miraclePtr mitigation against Use-After-Frees (UAFs). We also discuss an attack that abuses COM hijacking to elevate to SYSTEM through AVG Antivirus, and a permissions issue that allows unauthorized access to DRM'd audiobooks.
