The cycle of macOS security research:
1) think of an idea
2) give up when I find that npub1aftl7j6hxw75jtxu0mmmdx02hqvmrerlacxdej2vrzgwdejylx7qw2ghd8 (npub1aft…ghd8) already did it three years ago
I started looking at macOS's automatic thumbnail generation. It turns out theevilbit already researched it and reported a sandboxing issue there to Apple, who fixed it in Big Sur.
Guess no more low hanging fruit...
