But terminating it requires admin privileges and essentially reboots the GUI, so this is not a viable mode of exploitation.
So in order to exploit the vulnerability, we need to kill the WindowServer process. Check out the IOHIDeous narrative on GitHub, kind of interesting! The vulnerability exists in a process called IOHIDUserClient which the macOS limits to having only a single instance at any given time, which happens to be spawned by WindowServer. Joe discusses the first zero day exploit of 2018, actually launched via tweet on New Year's Eve.

Some things never change, the old HCS land grab jokes are in full swing Weldon hangs with the crew as another host in case Sam goes missing again. To start the new year, we are very pleased to be joined on our first live show of 2018 by Weldon Dodd of Rewind Technology in Denver, CO. Jerry is very excited about an iOS app called Drafts, a note taking app with impressive functionality. But at least VPN configurations were not an issue, unlike back in the days of Mavericks (and Yosemite too?)

Joe also follows up about having used Migration Assistant to switch to his new, used (and apparently slightly bruised) MacBook Pro 15-inch 2015, and notes that Safari Extensions needed to be reinstalled, surprisingly. Joe and Sam remark that they don't recall having had more than 10 days of uptime with their MacBook Pro 2016 models, although Sam has had better stability lately.

Joe gives us an update on his new/used 2015 MacBook Pro. CCP Theater! Jerry and Joe role play what you might encounter with new client calls Sam has follow up on using Daylite with his business and finds some functionality that he wasn't aware of New MacTech Pro events and cities have been announced! These situations can lead to having to explain the "why" to customers. In a recent support call with a client, Jerry finds that their MacBook Air had a failed SSD module. A natural progression would be a service that can not only answer calls, but support your clients like our recent sponsor, FLEXdesk Jerry gives us an update on his virtual receptionists, Smith.ai as Sam is exploring similar options. At this point Jerry thinks Sam needs to have his eyes checked. A similar issue has occurred to him in voicemails. Sam has been experiencing an issue where replying to a selected message in Apple Mail actually creates a reply to the incorrect message. He found that Google provides a URL to request missing emails:
Jerry came to the rescue of a client who wanted to clean up her inbox. If you want to get emails from Apple about product security when updates are released, subscribe to the Security-announce list At the rate we're going, might Apple hit 100 security updates this year? That's one every three days! Note that security updates are padded to three digits. High Sierra 10.13.3 was released today, which makes sense as Joe just updated his PsiTool drives yesterday.
