Multiple critical security vulnerabilities in OS X Yosemite

Emil Kvarnhammar from Swedish security company Truesec found multiple security vulnerabilities in OS X 10.10, codenamed Yosemite. He named it rootpipe. He published an article explaining how to discover these vulnerabilities and how to prevent them. These security vulnerabilities allow attackers to obtain the highest permissions of the machine, that is, root access, without a password. Currently, Apple has not fixed these vulnerabilities, and Truesec will not provide the working principles of these vulnerabilities.
