Reasons for the prompt "application is damaged and cannot be opened. You should move it to trash"
We have an application which keeps throwing the error "application is damaged and cannot be opened. You should move it to Trash" We have checked the following possible root causes: Codesign of the application using the codesign command Notarization of the application using the spctl command Executable permissions Checked for the presence of "com.apple.quarantine" flag for the application using xattr -l <path to executables" None of the above listed items seemed to be a problem and are as expected. Can you please help us understand what could cause this issue and how to resolve this without recommending an uninstall/reinstall of the application?

Local Network Privacy pop-up on macos Sequoia for CLI Tools Invoked by Launchd Daemon
Starting from macOS 15 (macOS Sequoia), a new pop-up is triggered: “Local Network Privacy.” We have some questions regarding this new pop-up on MacOS: Question 1: If a launchd daemon invokes a command-line tool, will this tool trigger the local network prompt if it attempts to access the network? We use a launchd daemon which runs in root context and is started from /Library/LanuchDaemons/ Question 2: How will this prompt work across various macOS executables? I have read other developer forum articles and the https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/663858 - Local Network Privacy FAQ. The responses are a little unclear and any insight into these questions would be very helpful with this new requirements.
