This repository contains a proof-of-concept (POC) exploit for CVE-2025-61229, a local privilege escalation vulnerability in Shirt Pocket's SuperDuper! for macOS (version 3.10 and earlier). The exploit consists of a Bash script (CVE-2025-61229.sh) and a detailed README.md. The script demonstrates how a local attacker can modify SuperDuper!'s task settings to execute an arbitrary shell script with root privileges and Full Disk Access, bypassing macOS privacy controls. The exploit works by creating a malicious shell script that lists the user's Desktop directory and writes the output to /Library/private_data.txt, then updates the SuperDuper! settings to execute this script before a backup task. The README provides extensive background, analysis, and mitigation advice. The repository is structured simply, with the exploit script as the main code file and the README providing context and technical details. No network endpoints are involved; all actions are performed locally via file system manipulation.
