This is your reminder that having SIP turned off allows trivial escalation to root and disabling part of SIP is broadly equivalent, security wise, to disabling the whole thing
@saagar allowing untrusted kexts though? given that changing a kext requires reboot and auth just like disabling sip?
@tbodt I don’t think there is an easy way to install a kext but given that I basically never do this I doubt anyone really cares at this point
@saagar i mean like, if you partially disable sip to load a kext, and that kext is safe, and you never change it, that's better security-wise than sip fully disabled. right?
@tbodt No, I don’t think so, because a lot of stuff checks for SIP being disabled which means any flag counts
@saagar dammit
ok, just have the kext enable sip again problem solved
