If you peruse https://nabla-c0d3.github.io/blog/2015/06/16/ios9-security-privacy/ you’ll see the following section:


Apple has closed three privacy gaps that allowed Apps to detect which other Apps were installed on the device.
The first technique was to use the sysctl() function to retrieve the process table (a remnant of OS X), which includes the list of running Apps. In iOS 9, sysctl() was modified to no longer allow sandboxed Apps to retrieve information about other running processes.


IMAS uses sysctl to detect the pid.

Solution:
The IMAS function dbgGetPid() can be replaced with the built-in function getpid()
