Use Full Disk Access permissions to read the contents of TCC.db and display it in human-readable format
SwiftParseTCC
This tool leverages the research linked below to understand the contents of TCC.db. Uses "Full Disk Access" permissions to read the contents of TCC.db and display it in human-readable format. Can output as a pseudo table viewable in the terminal or as a text table which is viewed best in a text editor.
Usage
- Dump global TCC.db as a pseudo table
./SwiftParseTCC -p "/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db"
- Dump user TCC.db as a text table (best viewed in a text editor)
./SwiftParseTCC -path "~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db" -table
Note
The base64 encoded blobs are binary blobs that describe the code signing requirement. This is used to prevent spoofing/impersonation if another program uses the same bundle identifier. They can be decoded using the csreq binary as follows:
slyd0g@Justins-MBP ~ % echo "+t4MAAAAADAAAAABAAAABgAAAAIAAAASY29tLmFwcGxlLlRlcm1pbmFsAAAAAAAD" | base64 -d > lol.bin
slyd0g@Justins-MBP ~ % csreq -v -r lol.bin -t
identifier "com.apple.Terminal" and anchor apple
