Hi everybody!
With latest updates on Ventura around 13.9.X, Sonoma 14.5 and upper, and most probably Sequoia, we notice a change on how to retrieve BSSID. We know Airport is discontinue, but also other commands are impacted by new security policies.
Now, to make any command work in the proper way we need to ask for Location Permission. But here is where we are finding some issues to make it compatible with the new requirements.
We have a web desktop app (Built with Electronjs) that use an mach-o executable (built on C++). This executable runs IOREG to retrieve the BSSID. One of the tries we did is to request the Location Permission on the parent/GUI app, but by doing this, IOREG was not able to retrieve the BSSID.
Then, we try to look for a way to make a little test only with our executable. But in the attempt to, we do not found a way to trigger the location permission request, either manually or by a command.
Is there a way to prompt the user from a terminal executable or the right way is to prompt from the GUI?
Do we need to stop using Mach-o executable in c++ and move to a native mach-o executable in swift to be able to prompt from it (This executable runs in the machine frequently, several times per minute)?
We are open to change the command if need it.

Hi everyone!
We use to have an intel Mac machine where we generate the Developer ID Installer & Application certs for signing and notarization process. This process works sweet.
Now, we move from an intel to a m1 Mac machine, where we want to do the same process as before. I had try two different approaches, but ending up with the same result.
I export the cert with the private key from my intel to the m1 machine, but when I try to sign, I get: Invalid signature. (Not sure what this error means in this case as everything works on the intel machine. I am guessing the cipher for creating either the private key or the signature differs between the architecture)
I try to generate new certs for this m1 machine, but I get the following error: You already have a current Developer ID installer certificate or a pending certificate request. I try with the same account, but also with a different account. In both cases got the same error.
I create a ticket for apple, where they said to expect a reply between one and two business days, but no luck yet.
