I was wondering if anyone had experience with Managed Device Profiles on iPad to be able to answer a quick question regarding passcode reset. We are using Microsoft Intune to manage our fleet of iPads that our store employees will use on an Ad-Hoc basis. When a user logs into an iPad for the day, we are issuing a resetPasscode command to the MicrosoftGraph specifying that device ID. We are getting a successful response to the iPad itself. But the device is allowing the user 1 hour of free time to dismiss the reset passcode dialogue. Which enables them to use the iPad unprotected for up to an hour, which is not what we want. Does anyone know of any way to force the user to select a passcode immediately? I know this is a device side restriction. But is there anything apple can do to help us in this instance, since our MDM profile can't close this time window on the Intune side?

hey everyone.!! In one of my macOS projects I am trying to fetch the files and folders available on "Desktop" and "Document" folder and trying to showing it on collection view inside the my project, but when I try to fetch the files and folder of desktop and document, I am not able to fetch it. But if i try it by setting the entitlements False, I am able to fetch it. If any have face the similar issue, or have an alternative it please suggest. NOTE:- I have tried implementing it using NSOpenPanel and it works, but it lowers the user experience.

Our company developed an app that relies on the collected list to display the phone's label in the list when the user's phone receives an incoming call. However, we have been rejected. The main reason for the rejection is as follows: “ Guideline 1.1.6 - Safety - Objectionable Content The app still allows users to unblock and reveal blocked incoming numbers to identify the individual calling or texting, which is not appropriate. Specifically, your app claims to offer the call blocking functionality, but solely identifies numbers that the user has explicitly blocked themselves. Since users can choose to hide their caller ID in iPhone Settings, apps should not attempt to circumvent this iOS feature to reveal the caller's number. ” But our developers clearly stated that there is no way to bypass these settings, and CallDirectory Extensionde cannot directly "unlock hidden numbers" or bypass the built-in restrictions of IOS. We don't know how to solve this problem next, and hope to get everyone's help.

I created an app in Xcode using ApplescriptObjC that is supposed to communicate with Finder and Adobe Illustrator. It has been working for the last 8 years, until now I have updated it for Sonoma and it no longer triggers the alerts for the user to approve the communication. It sends the Apple Events, but instead of the alert dialog I get this error in Console: "Sandboxed application with pid 15728 attempted to lookup App: "Finder"/"finder"/"com.apple.finder" 654/0x0:0x1d01d MACSstill-hintable sess=100017 but was denied due to sandboxing." The Illustrator error is prdictably similar. I added this to the app.entitlements file: <key>com.apple.security.automation.apple-events</key> <array> <string>com.apple.finder</string> <string>com.adobe.illustrator</string> </array> I added this to Info.plist: <key>NSAppleEventsUsageDescription</key> <string>This app requires access to Finder and Adobe Illustrator for automation.</string> I built the app, signed with the correct Developer ID Application Certificate. I've also packaged it into a signed DMG and installed it, with the same result as running it from Xcode. I tried stripping it down to just the lines of code that communicate with Finder and Illustrator, and built it with a different bundle identifier with the same result. What am I missing?

I am in need of assistance with sandboxing the riot games client and game league of legends. I originally played on a vm from linux but after the change to the incredibly intrusive rootkit malware vanguard. I cannot play from a vm or at least it would be difficult, if this route of containerizing it on mac proves to be more difficult (which wouldn't make sense) then I will go back to spoofing the a vm to not look like a vm. This is even more infuriating because I almost exclusively play Team Fight Tactics in which there is zero cheating and cheating would give a player zero advantage. I decided I would try the Mac version of the game but apple does not sandbox applications at all like flatpak and flatseal from linux. The game has access to my entire system and can read and write to my home directory. This is a massive security risk. I originally tried checking the system settings privacy and security section but the application was not listed anywhere nor was it given access on any of the sections listed. I checked both user local and global tcc.dbs and neither had records that gave the game or client any privileges. This was concerning because tcc.db appears to be the only user facing way of managing permissions that you would think would be a bare minimum baseline and yet the game and client have full access to my system and those permissions are listed nowhere and are given no where. Ie. the default is just to let it do as it pleases even though its a game that only thing it needs to render to the screen. MacOS should properly fix this and implement proper sandboxing of applications like flatpak. I then began building a configuration scheme for sandbox-exec seeing as it was the last opportunity to correctly contain the application to only have the permissions it needs. I carefully crafted the config but it fails just as simply allowing all with allow default... (version 1) (allow default) I run the application with the following command: sandbox-exec -f ~/config.sb "/Users/Shared/Riot Games/Riot Client.app/Contents/MacOS/RiotClientServices" Below are some of the errors produced from running the client sandboxed. 00:44:09.819 (SplashScreenManager) Displaying splash screen from default-splash.html for 2000ms 00:44:09.825 app.isPackaged true 00:44:09.842 Loading page from http://127.0.0.1:51563/index.html sandbox initialization failed: Operation not permitted Failed to initialize sandbox.[0102/004409.953876:ERROR:exception_snapshot_mac.cc(139)] exception_thread not found in task [0102/004409.954838:ERROR:process_reader_mac.cc(309)] thread_get_state(4): (os/kern) invalid argument (4) [0102/004409.954852:ERROR:process_reader_mac.cc(309)] thread_get_state(4): (os/kern) invalid argument (4) [0102/004409.955178:WARNING:process_reader_mac.cc(532)] multiple MH_EXECUTE modules (/usr/libexec/rosetta/runtime, /Library/Apple/usr/libexec/oah/libRosettaRuntime) [0102/004409.955364:WARNING:process_reader_mac.cc(532)] multiple MH_EXECUTE modules (/usr/libexec/rosetta/runtime, /Users/Shared/Riot Games/Riot Client.app/Contents/Frameworks/Riot Client.app/Contents/Frameworks/Riot Client Helper (Renderer).app/Contents/MacOS/Riot Client Helper (Renderer)) [0102/004410.111422:ERROR:exception_snapshot_mac.cc(139)] exception_thread not found in task [4607:0102/004415.168524:ERROR:gpu_process_host.cc(991)] GPU process exited unexpectedly: exit_code=6 [4607:0102/004415.187770:ERROR:network_service_instance_impl.cc(521)] Network service crashed, restarting service. 00:44:15.215 Renderer process has unexpectedly crashed or was killed: crashed (6) { reason: 'crashed', exitCode: 6 }

Hello! Few month ago i did get hacked on my pc and then my android and iphone. Did get at notice that payments couldent draw. lucky I only had 240kr on lunar card that it did draw 200kr to a gift card. Did get mail from skrill that a account whas created with one of my Gmail’s. Tryed to log them out but window did keep close. Gmail did flag like crazy and wanted me to change pw. how the **** when I lost control of my phone?!?!??! Just lock it god Damn. let’s make it short! I shared network to pc from my phone With usb. I don’t just think it whas a attacker program as Gmail did flag. I think I did get mirror linked on my android and maybe my iphone. Had a real struggle to reset my pc and phones before it worked. My iPhone drains battery like crazy and feels laggy sometimes. A non registered number whas added to two Gmail’s that they did try to change pw multiple times. did notice I Linux pc activity on my fb and some other stuff. My iphone do reboot still sometimes and every second reboot wifi/bluet can’t be activated and mobile share change pw as the original one did look. Next reboot all work and are the same again. Iam scared that iam still hacked or havent removed him from everything. How can I make sure that Iam still not mirror linked and that he or she can’t access anything? Sorry for the long text but iam scared as ****.

Hi, Just follow the related post to implement this method in the app, but it gave me error, like: "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made" the info plist configuration like below, NSPinnedDomains mysite.com NSIncludesSubdomains NSPinnedCAIdentities SPKI-SHA256-BASE64 r/mIkG3eEpVdm+u/ko/cwxzOMo1bk4TyHIlByibiA5E= The pub key is right for me, since it works when I use different pub key pinning through URLSession interface. So here, I dont know where to start the troubleshooting, any advice would be appreciated.

I am developing apps using NWJS framework, which access devices on the local network. I am doing this on Sequoia on Macos (Desktop). I have developed other apps using NWJS before, but on earlier versions of Macos. My issue is, I am unable to give my app permission to app to access devices on local network on one of the apps. Some background: Other apps which I have used which access devices on the local network, on first-time launching, have given a prompt asking me if I want to allow or deny access to local device for the app. However, on first-time launching (and many others after that), It simply says the device cannot be reached, and I never get a prompt asking me if I want to allow or deny access to local device for my app. In its barebones proof-of-concept stage of my app, I have an iframe who's src attribute is the IP address of a device known on the network with that address. I have tried the protocol https://192.168.1.99 and http://192.168.1.99 in the src attribute. This protocol works in another app I have built where upon first-time launch, I was able to get a prompt and give it the needed permission. If I check in System Settings > Privacy and Security > Network, the app doesn't appear where I can toggle a setting. I also am unable to explicitly add my app to the list. ** This worked for one app, but not another: In researching this issue, it was recommended that I add the following keys in info.plist: com.apple.developer.networking.multicast - boolean true NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription - string description NSNearbyInteractionUsageDescription - string description This worked for one of my apps, but not another, which has a nearly identical structure. In fact, other than CFBundleIdentifier, CFBundleDisplayName and CFBundleName, info.plist is identical. Why did this work one time, and how can I get my app to prompt for permission for local network access?

I have configured DKIM and amazon's default spf. but can't get emails using Amazon Send, do I have to configure a custom domain name here for this to work, I'd like to get a definitive conclusion!

Hello, I'm developing a Command Line Tool in XCode, in order to capture system audio and save it to a file, which will then be used by a separate process. Everything works perfectly when running it from either XCode or the native terminal application (see image below), but as soon as I try to run it from any 3rd party application, it doesn't ask for permissions to record sound, and the resultant file ends up soundless. When archiving it and then running it from other 3rd party applications, e.g Warp (terminal) or spawning it as a child process from a bundled Electron application, it doesn't ask for permissions. Things of note: I've codesigned the application with "Developer ID Application" I've added NSAudioCaptureUsageDescriptionto Info.plist I've included Info.plist in the binary (see image below) I've added the com.apple.security.device.audio-input entitlement I've used the following resources as inspiration: https://github.com/insidegui/AudioCap https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreaudio/capturing-system-audio-with-core-audio-taps As my use-case involves spawning the executable from Electron as a child process, I've tried to include the appropriate permissions to the parent application too, without success. I'm really at a loss here, it feels like I've tried everything. Any pointers are much appreciated! Thanks

iOS 18.2 (22C152) My phone is currently on lockdown mode and I have gotten alerts from Experian that my information is on the dark web as well as having to reset all my accounts. However this has not fixed the issue. Even if I hard factory reset settings etc the root makes its way very shortly after, if not immediately. Though I recently got these notifications and purchased the phone in Feb. 2024 the has been an ongoing issue for a few years. I can elaborate if needed. To make it short I have a reinstalled root on my phone. Apple nor Spectrum (who I have my phone with) have been able to assist with this issue. I have been able to clarify this ”hijacking” with the Geek Squad who didn’t want their legal team involved when asking for a report so the PD can do an internal cyber investigation. So, I’ve just lived with it. Let me know what your thoughts to resolve this issue would be before spending thousands to find a resolution on my own. Side note before asked: what I’ve been told may be it’s ”gateway” is via “DNS hijacking” with WiFi or internally hotspot. I can also elaborate if needed-I’m not a web developer, however I do know where this issue stems from whom has their masters in such industry as well as 30 years experience. It’s annoying and inconvenient at this point and I’m looking for clarity, resolution and if no justice for the criminal then liability. thank you! please refrain from saying “APpLe CaNt bE hiJaCked“ ..

I am using SFAuthorizationPluginView in my Security agent plugin. My code expects that its willActivate method be called. With normal screensaver unlock, this works fine. However if I enter an invalid password, then enter the correct password, I never get the willActivate call. I have reproduced this with Quinn's LoginUIAuthPlugin from the QAuthPlugins example code. My mechanisms look like this with LoginUIAuthPlugin: mechanisms HyprAuthPlugin:invoke builtin:authenticate,privileged PKINITMechanism:auth,privileged LoginUIAuthPlugin:login CryptoTokenKit:login I would like to be able to get my plugin working properly when the user had previously entered an invalid password.

To apply for NFC & SE Platform entitlement, I need to provide information regarding licensed applets and TSM. However, I currently lack background knowledge in these areas. Could you provide me with an overview or examples of what licensed applets and TSM entail?

I'm using the following code to store a Keychain item: SecAccessControlCreateWithFlags( kCFAllocatorDefault, kSecAttrAccessibleWhenUnlockedThisDeviceOnly, .biometryAny, &error ) One of my app users reported an issue: 1. The user navigated to his iPhone’s Face ID settings and click `Reset Face ID`. 2. Then, before he set new Face ID, he accidentally tapped the "Back" button and returned to the iPhone Settings page. 3. He later reopened the Face ID setup page and completed the process. 4. Upon returning to my app, the Keychain item secured by Face ID was no longer found. I understand that .biometryAny may cause Keychain items to become invalidated when biometric data is reset. However, the user’s scenario — where the setup was temporarily interrupted — seems to have caused the item to disappear. 1. Is there a way to detect and handle such interruptions to prevent the Keychain item from being lost? 2. How can I design a better experience to guide the user in recreating the Keychain item when this occurs?

我配置了 DKIM 和 amazon 的默认 spf。但无法使用 Amazon Send 获取电子邮件，则可以发送配置的单个电子邮件

Hi everyone, I'm encountering an issue where the background location indicator remains visible on the status bar even though I have set the location permissions to Never for my app in the system settings. Despite taking all the necessary steps to stop location tracking (including stopping updates, geofencing, and other location-related services), the indicator still appears. This seems to be a bug since everything has been turned off on my end. Here’s what I’ve already tried: Setting location permissions to Never in the settings. Stopping startUpdatingLocation(), stopMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges(), and geofencing (using locationManager.stopMonitoringRegions()). Calling locationManager.showsBackgroundLocationIndicator = false. Ensuring that the CLLocationManager is fully invalidated. Despite all of this, the background location indicator still remains in the status bar. I’ve tested it on real devices, as well as in the simulator, with no improvement. Has anyone experienced something similar, or can suggest why this might be happening? Could this be related to an iOS 18+ issue? Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm currently working on a project in Swift where I need to digitally sign a PDF file. I have the following resources available: Private Key stored in the iOS Keychain with a tag. Public Key also stored in the iOS Keychain with a tag. A valid certificate stored as a PEM string. I need to digitally sign a PDF file with the above keys and certificate, but I'm struggling to find a clear and straightforward example or guidance on how to achieve this in Swift. Specifically, I’m looking for help with: Creating the digital signature using the private key and certificate. Embedding this signature into the PDF file. Any considerations I should be aware of regarding the format of the signed PDF (e.g., CMS, PKCS7, etc.). If anyone has experience with digitally signing PDFs in Swift, I would greatly appreciate your guidance or code examples. Thank you in advance!

Friday we were preparing to publish our final build in TestFlight. Our developer informed me that the account holder had to agree to new terms and agreements. I am the sole user of this account, and tried to login (1 week ago I was still able to login). To my surprise I got the notification “account locked”, ”you need to reset your password”. I followed the required step: filling in the phone number on file (which is my phone number). After filling this in the page informed me that they’d get back to me in 1 day. On Saturday I received an email from no_reply@apple with the following “We have received the request for access to your account and we have denied access.” There was no further information in the email why this would be. I tried Apple support but they tell me they can not reactivate the account and I should apply for a new Apple ID. This sounds really strange as it would mean I would lose access to our currently published application forever? But in general I am just shocked how they can deny access to an account, which is even a paid one (Developer Program), and not help me out. I am able to supply all identification (passport). I have access to the email that we use to login. I have access to the mobile phone number that is connected for exactly this reason (two factor authentication). Anyone with similar experience and/or solutions?
