Apple macOS/IOS 10.12.2(16C67) mach_msg Heap Overflow

/*

When sending ool memory via |mach_msg| with |deallocate| flag or |MACH_MSG_VIRTUAL_COPY| flag, |mach_msg| performs moving the memory to the destination process instead of copying it. But it doesn't consider the memory entry object that could resurrect the moved memory. As a result, it could lead to a shared memory race condition.
 
Exploitation:
We need specific code that references the memory twice from |mach_msg|.
Here's a snippet of such a function |xpc_dictionary_insert|.
 
v14 = strlen(shared_memory);  <<-- 1st
v15 = _xpc_malloc(v14 + 41);
...
strcpy((char *)(v15 + 32), shared_memory);  <<-- 2nd
 
If we change the string's length bigger before |strcpy| is called, it will result in a heap overflow.
 
This bug is triggerable from a sandboxed process.
 
The attached PoC will crash diagnosticd(running as root). It requires more than 512MB memory to run.
 
Tested on macOS Sierra 10.12.2(16C67).
 
clang++ -o poc poc.cc -std=c++11
