These numbers tell us that the tool is really taking off, and the community is loving it. Emulating Windows XP x86 under M1 Mac via UTM & QEMU. In fact, there are even large and known companies among a total of 50,000 unique downloads that Docker-OSX has had thus far. Also, the researcher told us that he is an active participant in the Apple Bug Bounty Program, so the intention isn’t to enable piracy but to lift restrictions from the space of research.Īll that said, users of Docker-OSX shouldn’t be afraid of facing similar threats to those that Apple launched in relation to Corellium, even if some EULAs are still violated here, no doubt. We’ve asked Sick.Codes about how that would affect “Docker-OSX,” and he told us that it could change the iMessage login procedures, so it could prevent some aspects of the image’s functionality.Īs for the legal aspect of using “Docker-OSX,” while it’s obvious that Apple doesn’t want people to use tools of this kind, the work of Sick.Codes don’t contain anything that is copyright protected, so it doesn’t violate anything, and it should stay unmoved on GitHub.
DOCKER FOR MAC ALTERNATIVE SERIAL
In fact, only two days ago, we covered the news about a leak of an internal AppleCare email which indicates that Apple is actually planning to randomize its serial numbers, making the generation of valid hardware IDs a lot harder than what it currently is.


From security research to server-level deployments and from programming for the macOS platform to just experimenting with Apple’s proprietary software, Docker-OSX can help with a wide range of applications that the Cupertino company would normally never offer. So, someone could create 50 perfectly valid iMac Pros, or even 10,000 Macbooks, generating an army of unique virtual machines on Docker, for whatever purpose.
