Revision as of 07:23, 25 April 2017

The kernel of iOS is the XNU kernel. To learn about what "kernel" means in general, see the Wikipedia article.

Pre-2.0, it was vulnerable to the Ramdisk Hack and may still be, but iBoot doesn't allow boot-args to be passed anymore. It is mapped to memory at 0x80000000, forcing a 2/2GB address separation, similar to Windows 32-bit model. On older iOS versions the separation was 3/1 (mapping the kernel at 0xC0000000), closer to the Linux model.

Note, that this is NOT like 32-bit OS X, wherein the kernel resides in its own address space, but more like OS X 64-bit, wherein CR3 is shared (albeit an address space larger by several orders of magnitude). See the appropriate section.

ASLR

Main article: Kernel ASLR

As of iOS 6, the kernel is subject to ASLR, much akin to Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8). This makes exploitation harder as the location of kernel code cannot be known.

On production and development devices, the kernel is always stored as a statically linked cache stored at /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kernelcaches/kernelcache that is decompressed and run on startup.

Stack

The kernel maintains thread specific stacks by calling kernel_memory_allocate, this allocates stacks in the specified kalloc zone. The bootstrap thread has its own specific static kernel stack, which is specified by _intstack. IRQ and FIQ handlers will also have their own execution stack which is specified by _irqstack.

Boot-Args

Like its OS X counterpart, iOS's XNU accepts command line arguments (though the actual passing of arguments is done by iBoot, which as of late refuses to do so). Arguments may be directed at the kernel proper, or any one of the many KExts (discussed below). The arguments of the kernel are largely the same as those of OS X.

Kexts use boot-args as well, as can be seen when disassembly by calls to PE_parse_boot_argn (usually exported, _PE_parse_boot_argn 8027A8EC on the iOS 6.1.3 kernel, discovered by Haifisch). Finding references (using IDA) reveals hundreds places in the code wherein arguments are parsed in modules, pertaining to Flash, HDMI, and AMFI.


The list of boot-args can be extracted from any kernel dump once the address of _PE_parse_boot_argn is determined (which is usually automatically). A list from iOS 8.4 is shown below:

# perform a full disassembly, isolate decompiled lines (^;) with PE_parse.. and isolate string between quotes, sorted uniquely:

Versions

In the beginning iOS had consistently maintained a fairly higher kernel version than the corresponding version of OS X, but over time iOS and OS X have "moved nearer" together. And now, OS X El Capitan's XNU is 3247.1.106~1 and iOS 9.0 is 3248.1.2~3. This is not surprising, considering that iOS introduced novel features (such as Kernel ASLR, the default freezer, and various security hardening features) which are first incorporated in it, and later made it to OS X. It seems that Apple is gradually uniting the iOS and OS X kernels over time and with iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan the version numbers are nearer to each other then ever before. The following demonstrates the OS versions at present (via terminal uname -a command):

macOS Sierra 10.12.4:

Darwin Kernel Version 16.5.0: Fri Mar  3 16:52:33 PST 2017; root:xnu-3789.51.2~3/RELEASE_X86_64

iOS 10.3.1:

Darwin Kernel Version 16.5.0: Thu Feb 23 23:22:54 PST 2017; root:xnu-3789.52.2~7\/RELEASE_ARM64_S8000

tvOS 10.2:

Darwin Kernel Version 16.5.0: Wed Feb 22 22:54:48 PST 2017; root:xnu-3789.53.1~2/RELEASE_ARM64_T7000

watchOS 3.2:

Darwin Kernel Version 16.5.0: Wed Feb 22 22:46:40 PST 2017; root:xnu-3789.54.1~1\/RELEASE_ARM_S7002

Note: The RELEASE_ARM_xxxxxxxx file obviously differs on device / CPU and the time varies by a few minutes per device.

iOS

The compilation date for each version will vary slightly between processors. This is due to the fact that compilations are sequential.

Source Code

As XNU is based off of the BSD kernel, it is open source. The source is under a 3-clause BSD License for the original BSD portions with the portions added by Apple under the Apple Public Source License. The versions contained in iOS are not available, instead only versions used in OS X are available. This does not appear to be legal as per §2.3 in the APSL:

2.3     Distribution of Executable Versions.  In addition, if You Externally Deploy Covered
Code (Original Code and/or Modifications) in object code, executable form only, You must
include a prominent notice, in the code itself as well as in related documentation, stating
that Source Code of the Covered Code is available under the terms of this License with
information on how and where to obtain such Source Code.

with Source Code defined in §1.8:

1.8     "Source Code" means the human readable form of a program or other work that is
suitable for making modifications to it, including all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, scripts used to control compilation and installation
of an executable (object code).

It is worth noting that Apple does not list XNU as being an open source component of iOS. This can be seen by viewing opensource.apple.com and selecting any iOS version. As far as can be told, none of the versions of XNU are available in source version.

There are many other open souce components that iOS uses that are not listed, such as:

It does not appear that Apple assumes what you see in the OS X pages are also on iOS as JavaScriptCore, WebCore, among others are listed on both OS X (10.8) and iOS (6.0), albeit different versions.

It is also worth noting that gdb (GCC debugger) and ld64 are listed as components in iOS 6.0. Why there are present is a mystery as they are not present on unaltered devices, but only through Cydia or Xcode's DeveloperImage.dmg.

Kernel Extensions

iOS, sadly, does not have kexts floating around the file system, but they are indeed present. The kernelcache can be unpacked to show the kernel proper, along with the kexts (all packed in the __PRELINK_TEXT section) and their plists (in the __PRELINK_INFO section).

The kernelcache can also be directly unpacked (if decrypted) using the Jonathan Levin's joker tool from http://NewOSXBook.com/tools/joker.html. With the advent of iOS 10 betas and out-of-box plaintext kernelcaches, this tool can be used after unpacking and applying lzssdec to decompress the kernelcache to its full size.

The Cydia supplied kextstat does not work on iOS. Sadly, the reason is that kextstat relies on kmod_get_info(...), which is a deprecated (and recently removed) API in iOS 4.x and OS X 10.6. With that said, the kexts do exist. As an alternative, consider using kextstat from the iOS BinUtils package (http://NewOSXBook.com/tool/iOSBinaries.html) or the open source modified version "JKextstat" (http://newosxbook.com/src.jl?tree=listings&file=18-1-JKextstat.c), which can also dump the raw XML data.


For a specific extension, e.g. SandBox, the full information (including the handy load address) is also accessible:

It's also worth mentioning that, in the above listing, the OSBundleMachOHeaders (base-64 encoded binary headers) leak kernel addresses in iOS 6.0, defeating Kernel ASLR. This has been quickly fixed in iOS 6.0.1, effectively locking down iOS for the foreseeable future, thanks to security researcher mdowd.
