InstallMedia errors with Internal Error <MDMClientError:-567>

Hi MDM folks,

We're getting reports - and were able to reproduce - that installing books fails on macOS these days ; InstallMedia command errors with Internal Error MDMClientError:-567.

Steps to repro:

  1. Enroll a mac (tested with Mac Book Air M1 running macOS 12.1) to your favorite MDM
  2. login to iCloud
  3. Go to Apple School Manager (or Business), get VPP location, get a book for the location.
  4. Have a VPP (from the location) user registered, send notification to the device to have it associated (respond to notification, accept T&Cs).
  5. Use VPP API to associate a license from this location for the user created in 4. Wait 3 minutes to be sure.
  6. Run InstallMedia command with the itunes id.

Getting now:

Looking at device logs after installing ManagedClient Log profiles :

[ERROR] [ErrorChain.0] (InstallMedia) [MDMClientError:-567] Internal Error <MDMClientError:-567>>

CSSM Exception: -2147415780 CSSMERR_CSP_INVALID_KEYATTR_MASK

I'll try with 12.2 Beta, but sounds like something's wrong with 12.1 and book assignment. Any hint ?

Thanks (and all the best for 2022!).

Can you please file feedback with a sysdiagnose attached so we can take a look.
