- TCC is meant to protect user data from unauthorized access, but weaknesses in its design mean that protections are easily overridden inadvertently.
- Automation, by design, allows Full Disk Access to be ‘backdoored’ while also lowering the authorization barrier.
- Multiple partial and full TCC bypasses are known, with at least one actively exploited in the wild.
- TCC does not prevent processes reading and writing to ‘protected’ locations, a loophole that can be used to hide malware.
