Recently we've discovered an issue affecting our products in regards to using the Monterey+ provided new api calls to selectively mute events. Specifically, whenever using es_mute_process_events or es_mute_path_events, the ES_EVENT_TYPE_NOTIFY_OPEN event is ignored for muting (meaning the call will return success, but the event will keep coming). This is true only for this event as far as I can tell, its AUTH counterpart stays muted (along lots of other processes: clone, rename, close, unlink, fork etc). It fails if either the event is in a list of events or if the event is singled out in 1 sized vector of events. When using a dedicated client for this event and using the previous api, es_mute_process or es_mute_path muting works as intended. Tested on ventura 13.5 and 13.6. Is there something that can be done to prevent dedicated clients or is this a known issue?

Hello, We have an endpoint security daemon which also uses some system extensions (network content filtering, file notifications). When building on debug with the correct entitlements (get-task-allow) we cannot attach with the debugger. More precisely, after attach, instead of displaying thread information, the daemon just stops (in logs appears a SIGKILL with no source). Before this happens, the system freezes for about 15-20 seconds, so I'm guessing it's some kind of watchdog that kills the app before the debugger can completely attach. The same happens with a custom built GDB, as well as various versions of LLDB. How can we find out what kills the daemon and maybe increase the timeout or some other solution like that?
