macOS < 10.14.3 / iOS < 12.1.3 - Arbitrary mach Port Name Deallocation in XPC Services due to Invalid mach Message Parsing in _xpc_serializer_unpack
C:
/*
_xpc_serializer_unpack in libxpc parses mach messages which contain xpc messages.

There are two reasons for an xpc mach message to contain descriptors: if the message body is large, then it's sent as
a MACH_MSG_OOL_DESCRIPTOR. Also if the message contains other port resources (eg memory entry ports) then
they're also transfered as MACH_PORT_OOL_PORT descriptors.

Whilst looking through a dump of system mach message traffic gathered via a dtrace script I noticed something odd:
It's possible for a message to have the MACH_MSGH_BITS_COMPLEX bit set and also have a msgh_descriptor_count of 0.

Looking at ipc_kmsg_copyin_body you can see that this is in fact the case.

This is a kinda surprising fact, and I think there are likely to be multiple places where developers are going to
have assumed that there must be at least one descriptor if MACH_MSGH_BITS_COMPLEX is set.

It turns out that libxpc does exactly that in _xpc_serializer_unpack:

The code the goes on to read up to 0xffffffff port descriptors, storing the names and dispositions in two arrays.

By specifying an invalid disposition we can stop the loop, the serializer will then return an error and be destructed
which will cause names read from our fake descriptors to be passed to mach_port_deallocate().

You can test this PoC by attached lldb to the chosen target, setting a breakpoint on mach_port_deallocate and waiting
for the port name 0x414141 to be passed in rsi.

There is one mitigating factor which might prevent this from being exploitable on iOS: the underflowed value is used for two memory allocations
so you need to be able to reserve around 32G of RAM, on MacOS this is no problem but doesn't seem to be so easy on my XS.

Still, it would be a nice sandbox escape on MacOS.
