sniffMK
sniffMK
is a simple utility designed to sniff mouse and keyboard events on macOS. It is based on code from amit singh's website; (http://osxbook.com)
It was designed to facilitate malware analysis (specifically OSX/FruitFly which can simulate both mouse and keyboard events - see BlackHat/DefCon slides for details).
Run sniffMK
, as root, to start sniffing events:
# ./sniffMK
