Interesting. I am on 10.10.4 myself, and that's the OS I tested it on.

tpwn has been tested from 10.9 to 10.10.5, but of course, your mileage may vary. the KASLR leak part is not 100% reliable, unlike the actual code execution which is. I'd be interested in panic logs to sort the issue out, if you could share.

You are not vulnerable since you have SMAP!
what's SMAP? can't find info anywhere. edit: ok, found, cpu security feature. so it's possible this issue is mitigated on newer CPUs?
well, this bug is a null pointer deference. smap is like -no_shared_cr3, but without the performance loss.
