I want use task_for_pid() and attach to another process and then change its memory

  • 0

  1. I want use task_for_pid() and attach to another process and then change its memory on iOS system. I could do it successfully on OS X with the help of authorization services API, but on iOS, task_for_pid() always returns KERN_FAILURE. I need to get task_for_pid() function to work on jailbreak iPhone under root. As discussed in “Authentication” iOS does not provide this API, What should I do?

  2. Could I run as root on iOS Simulator and how to test app required running as root?

    It is returning KERN_FAILURE because of sandbox restrictions. Your executable needs the task_for_pid-allow and get-task-allow entitlements. See here for help on adding them to an executable.
