> simulate a USB hub with an input device and a usb drive

Yea but that has to be a custom or specific kind of programmable USB device. Or one that somehow unintentionally allows you to reflash its firmware to something else.

And also if anyone ever plugs your malicious USB device into a Mac, they will get a pop-up from macOS that asks you to identify the keyboard. Although maybe if it fakes a specific USB keyboard that macOS knows out of the box, you could avoid that?
