  • That also does not answer my question. I must’ve said it wrong.

    I was wondering “if I run a single command with sudo, and the timeout to when I would have to enter my password again for another sudo is aay 5 minutes, and I run another command without sudo within those five minutes inside that same shell, would that command be able to maliciously elevate itself using sudo?”

    Apple is actually pretty nice with how MacOS gets installed. Macs themselves have a recovery thing if you want to reinstall. If I remember correctly it is hardcoded with a version that came out before the device was released, but can automatically detect and verify a newer installed version.

    They get ya by tracking every last program you open, being hostile towards user choice, and charging you hundreds of dollars for $50 of storage.
