apple-aslrtool

Simple tool to fetch the ASLR slide for a given process on Apple Silicon and Intel Mac systems.

Features

• Detect hardened runtime
  • Note: If you have SIP disabled, this will always return false as the hardened runtime is enforced by SIP.
  • You can remove hardened runtime from a binary by removing its signature using codesign --remove-signature.
• Cross-architecture support (x86_64 binary can pull slide of aarch64 task and vice versa)
  • Note: YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY! arm64e is not officially supported and may require additional work on your part.

Usage

• apple-aslrtool --pid=<pid>: Fetch the ASLR slide for the given process using a PID.
• apple-aslrtool --name=<pid>: Fetch the ASLR slide for the given process using a name. The first found task will be used. Any tasks using hardened runtime will be ignored!

You can also provide an additional --base-address flag in case you want to override the default 0x100000000 value.

Installation

• cargo install apple-aslrtool
• cargo binstall apple-aslrtool

Requirements

• x86_64-apple-darwin build requires macOS 10.7 or later (untested on Intel hardware)
• aarch64-apple-darwin build requires macOS >= 11.0 (tested on macOS 14 only)
