Nigh7mares Mac OS

Privacy advocates have been complaining for years about telemetry on Windows 10, forcing Microsoft to make a number of concessions to satisfy regulators.

As the Mac starts to make inroads back into the enterprise, Apple faces a major problem - one that roars like a Lion. Its current operating system is a disaster from an IT management perspective. Nightmare Instead of waking up in her bed, Red finds herself in a cold, unfamiliar cave. As she ventures forward, she finds she is not alone and other denizens lurk.

It turns out one of the alternatives, switching to Apple’s macOS, may simply be moving from the frying pan into the fire.

A recent incident where Apple’s OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) was overwhelmed revealed to even casual users that Apple knows exactly which apps are running on your macOS laptop. During the partial outage, apps were very slow to launch or refused to launch at all, as the OS struggled to check the certificate of the apps against Apple’s revocation list.

Security Jeffrey Paul writes that this issue is simply the tip of the iceberg. On macOS Big Sur Apple does not only have control over which apps you run, but also:

  • the communication reveals your IP address, location and usage patterns.
  • the information is sent plain-text, meaning 3rd parties (e.g. NSA or Chinese firewall) have access to the same information.
  • the telemetry can not be blocked, as macOS Big Sur does not allow user-level firewalls or VPNs to access system communication.
  • Apple’s new ARM-based PCs can only run macOS Big Sur, and can not be downgraded to less encumbered operating systems.

Jeffrey Paul explains:

On modern versions of macOS, you simply can’t power on your computer, launch a text editor or eBook reader, and write or read, without a log of your activity being transmitted and stored. It turns out that in the current version of the macOS, the OS sends to Apple a hash (unique identifier) of each and every program you run, when you run it. Lots of people didn’t realize this, because it’s silent and invisible and it fails instantly and gracefully when you’re offline, but today the server got really slow and it didn’t hit the fail-fast code path, and everyone’s apps failed to open if they were connected to the internet. Because it does this using the internet, the server sees your IP, of course, and knows what time the request came in. An IP address allows for coarse, city-level and ISP-level geolocation, and allows for a table that has the following headings: Date, Time, Computer, ISP, City, State, Application Hash; Apple (or anyone else) can, of course, calculate these hashes for common programs: everything in the App Store, the Creative Cloud, Tor Browser, cracking or reverse engineering tools, whatever.

This means that Apple knows when you’re at home. When you’re at work. What apps you open there, and how often. They know when you open Premiere over at a friend’s house on their Wi-Fi, and they know when you open Tor Browser in a hotel on a trip to another city. “Who cares?” I hear you asking. Well, it’s not just Apple. This information doesn’t stay with them: These OCSP requests are transmitted unencrypted. Everyone who can see the network can see these, including your ISP and anyone who has tapped their cables. These requests go to a third-party CDN run by another company, Akamai. Since October of 2012, Apple is a partner in the US military intelligence community’s PRISM spying program, which grants the US federal police and military unfettered access to this data without a warrant, any time they ask for it. In the first half of 2019 they did this over 18,000 times, and another 17,500+ times in the second half of 2019.

This data amounts to a tremendous trove of data about your life and habits, and allows someone possessing all of it to identify your movement and activity patterns. For some people, this can even pose a physical danger to them. Now, it’s been possible up until today to block this sort of stuff on your Mac using a program called Little Snitch (really, the only thing keeping me using macOS at this point). In the default configuration, it blanket allows all of this computer-to-Apple communication, but you can disable those default rules and go on to approve or deny each of these connections, and your computer will continue to work fine without snitching on you to Apple. The version of macOS that was released today, 11.0, also known as Big Sur, has new APIs that prevent Little Snitch from working the same way. The new APIs don’t permit Little Snitch to inspect or block any OS level processes. Additionally, the new rules in macOS 11 even hobble VPNs so that Apple apps will simply bypass them.

Lois Rossman explains the issue equally eloquently in his video below:

Apple responded to the furore by saying:

Gatekeeper performs online checks to verify if an app contains known malware and whether the developer’s signing certificate is revoked. We have never combined data from these checks with information about Apple users or their devices. We do not use data from these checks to learn what individual users are launching or running on their devices.

Notarization checks if the app contains known malware using an encrypted connection that is resilient to server failures.

These security checks have never included the user’s Apple ID or the identity of their device. To further protect privacy, we have stopped logging IP addresses associated with Developer ID certificate checks, and we will ensure that any collected IP addresses are removed from logs.

The news makes rather a joke of Apple’s claims to put user privacy first. Do our readers agree? Let us know below.

Thanks, MrElectrifyer for the tip.

A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Android

Midnight Nightmare is a short home invasion horror game.

You play as Sean McDuckFace. You're sleeping in your bedroom and a loud knock wakes you up at midnight. You check the cameras to see who is knocking the door and find out that a guy with a battle axe is trying to open your door. You have to make sure he doesn't get in, or you'll be dead meat. Call 911 from your phone, hide in the closet, check the cameras, shoot your weapon and do whatever else it takes to stay alive from an axe wielding maniac.

My playthrough starts at 11:50

Great idea, the memes, and skull trumpet fit well with the game. The jokingly manner of everything, the skeleton girlfriends and the notes were funny. Love how nothing in the screenshots on the website foreshadowed how much memes are there.

The game in a whole is too much visible. Its obvious that there is a killer in the house and if you have played other FreezeStudios games, its extremely obvious. Sorry to say but most of your games are a bit too much predictable and the same. I don't know about the bright filters, it could be better without the lighting.

Getting your computer info to open the safe and unblock your phone was a great idea. It's just not fun when you mess up the dates and the names. Someone might get confused and demotivated to playing the whole game.

Simple, but it follows the classic formula nicely, i think its a 7. Could have some improvement and be better, but its still very good!

Fun, quirky take on a horror game and I still got scared! Ran into a couple of glitches (including the man not coming inside at all haha) but had lots of fun with it. Great work! :) Gameplay starts at 9:17 if interested :)

Cool game, I liked the Halloween decor!

The game is short and I got a bug while playing, but it was fun and a cool concept.

This was a lot of fun and one of the endings was very satisfying. Also, that halloween update is brilliant

VERY difficult to handle this game's INTENSE SPOOKINESS, but somehow, I made it through. Playthrough here:

Very epic and hilarious game XD

Made a small video on it if anyone is interested : D

Fun little game

This was well put together! I wish there was a little more to do with the surveillance aspect of the game though. Otherwise, it's a well structured experience!

Pupper died, I avenged him!!!!

If you have played the game, please consider leaving a rating. The feedback helps me to improve.

I LOST MY DOG IN THIS AND I AM HURTED AND I WILL NEVER GET OVER IT

Nigh7mares Mac Os Update

Gave it a go...

So glad I was able to save the dog, and getting revenge for my first playthrough was so sweet. I had some weird bug where he kept spinning in place, but overall the game is short and sweet, well done.

I had fun! I couldn't crack the phone code, though.

I feel really stupid...seeing others figure out the phone password! someone help! I figured everything else out :(

As always from Freeze Studios, thanks for the fun <3

Would love to do some voice acting for you :)

I got murdered
