"""Usage: change_mach_o_flags.py [--executable-heap] [--no-pie] <executablepath>
Arranges for the executable at |executable_path| to have its data (heap)
pages protected to prevent execution on Mac OS X 10.7 ("Lion"), and to have
the PIE (position independent executable) bit set to enable ASLR (address
space layout randomization). With --executable-heap or --no-pie, the
respective bits are cleared instead of set, making the heap executable or
disabling PIE/ASLR.
This script is able to operate on thin (single-architecture) Mach-O files
and fat (universal, multi-architecture) files. When operating on fat files,
it will set or clear the bits for each architecture contained therein.
NON-EXECUTABLE HEAP
Traditionally in Mac OS X, 32-bit processes did not have data pages set to
prohibit execution. Although user programs could call mprotect and
mach_vm_protect to deny execution of code in data pages, the kernel would
silently ignore such requests without updating the page tables, and the
hardware would happily execute code on such pages. 64-bit processes were
always given proper hardware protection of data pages. This behavior was
controllable on a system-wide level via the vm.allow_data_exec sysctl, which
is set by default to 1. The bit with value 1 (set by default) allows code
execution on data pages for 32-bit processes, and the bit with value 2
(clear by default) does the same for 64-bit processes.
In Mac OS X 10.7, executables can "opt in" to having hardware protection
against code execution on data pages applied. This is done by setting a new
bit in the |flags| field of an executable's |mach_header|. When
MH_NO_HEAP_EXECUTION is set, proper protections will be applied, regardless
of the setting of vm.allow_data_exec. See xnu-1699.22.73/osfmk/vm/vm_map.c
override_nx and xnu-1699.22.73/bsd/kern/mach_loader.c load_machfile.
The Apple toolchain has been revised to set the MH_NO_HEAP_EXECUTION when
producing executables, provided that -allow_heap_execute is not specified
at link time. Only linkers shipping with Xcode 4.0 and later (ld64-123.2 and
later) have this ability. See ld64-123.2.1/src/ld/Options.cpp
Options::reconfigureDefaults() and
ld64-123.2.1/src/ld/HeaderAndLoadCommands.hpp
HeaderAndLoadCommandsAtom<A>::flags().
This script sets the MH_NO_HEAP_EXECUTION bit on Mach-O executables. It is
intended for use with executables produced by a linker that predates Apple's
modifications to set this bit itself. It is also useful for setting this bit
for non-i386 executables, including x86_64 executables. Apple's linker only
sets it for 32-bit i386 executables, presumably under the assumption that
the value of vm.allow_data_exec is set in stone. However, if someone were to
change vm.allow_data_exec to 2 or 3, 64-bit x86_64 executables would run
without hardware protection against code execution on data pages. This
script can set the bit for x86_64 executables, guaranteeing that they run
with appropriate protection even when vm.allow_data_exec has been tampered
with.
POSITION-INDEPENDENT EXECUTABLES/ADDRESS SPACE LAYOUT RANDOMIZATION
This script sets or clears the MH_PIE bit in an executable's Mach-O header,
enabling or disabling position independence on Mac OS X 10.5 and later.
Processes running position-independent executables have varying levels of
ASLR protection depending on the OS release. The main executable's load
address, shared library load addresess, and the heap and stack base
addresses may be randomized. Position-independent executables are produced
by supplying the -pie flag to the linker (or defeated by supplying -no_pie).
Executables linked with a deployment target of 10.7 or higher have PIE on
by default.
This script is never strictly needed during the build to enable PIE, as all
linkers used are recent enough to support -pie. However, it's used to
disable the PIE bit as needed on already-linked executables.
