Big Sur / Filter Data Provider vs Screen Sharing.app / File Upload failures

Is there any known issue in macOS Big Sur regarding Filter Data Provider and Screen Sharing.app file uploads?

From what I'm observing:

Uploading files through Screen Sharing.app fails when a Filter Data Provider is running and just requests to see all the data (and does nothing else).

At the same time, the remote display feature just works fine and Safari browsing works fine.


I've already filed a bug report with more info: FB8880461

Thanks for reporting. On your bug report I see that this is associated with macOS Big Sur 11.0 (beta 9). There were a lot of fixes that landed in macOS Big Sur Beta 10 and in 11.0.1. Have you tested on these versions yet?

In regards to your specific issue, I did hear of a similar issue in an earlier Betas for screen sharing so it would be good could retest this on 11.0.1 and if you are still able to reproduce then please take a sysdiagnose and attach it to your bug report.
