Why doesnt Apple allow BE BS flags to be false in AutoFill credential provider's attestation response?
It appears that for a successful registration of a passkey to a relying party using passkey autofill provider, the BE BS bits/flags in the attestation response need to be set to true. Please refer FLAGS byte of authData field part of attestationObject mentioned here - https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-attestation. If those flags are set to false, the RP rejects saying - "The operation either timed out or was not allowed. See: https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn-2/#sctn-privacy-considerations-client." What are the implications of having those flags set to true? Does it make the generated passkey syncable across devices using same apple id? If yes, is there at all anyway possible by which a generated passkey can be made device bound, basically can be generated and used only on a single iPhone/iOS device? Also, is there a plan to ever make those flags to be set to false in a future iOS release? Also, what does it mean in the credential provider popup where it says - "Available where is installed." in the below screenshot?

PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy Not Enforcing Domain Restrictions
Hello Apple Developer Community, I am reaching out to seek some assistance with an issue I've encountered related to user privacy settings in my app. Despite configuring the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file to disallow tracking and including specific domains within the Privacy Tracking Domains, I am observing that URLs containing these restricted domains are still being displayed within a webView in my app. Here are some specifics of the issue: The behavior occurs in both the iOS 17.1.1 simulator and on physical devices. I've double-checked the setup to ensure it aligns with the official documentation and expected privacy restrictions. I'm hopeful that someone in the community or from the Apple team can shed light on the matter. Why might the specified domains not be blocked as per the privacy settings? Any insights or guidance on resolving this would be greatly appreciated as it's crucial for maintaining the privacy standards of our app. Thank you for your time and help. Best regards,

Signature malleability check for PassKey (iCloud Keychain)
Hi everyone, I'm working on the verification of the PassKey signature for the integration of PassKey into our product. I've implemented the verification of P256 signature and it's correctly verifying the passkey signature. However, I want to know if Apple's Passkey signature is doing a malleability check (if the signature's S value is <= N / 2). If this is the case for Apple's passkey, I'm planning to also include this in the service for the signature verification to ensure a higher security level from the Passkey. Can anyone please help to answer this question? I checked documentation and many articles but this wasn't stated in the documents. Thank you for your answer in advance.

Secure XPC service call
I would like to develop a macOS application in Swift. This application will consist of 2 programs: a main program to be run by the user (standard account) and another one that will run with root privileges. The second program will only be invoked to perform privileged tasks. Running the main program under root permanently would be too risky. XPC will be used to trigger calls from the main program to the privileged program. How can I secure the privileged program to ensure that the calling program is indeed my main program and not another unauthorized program?

Describing use of required reason API - stat()
Hi, I am preparing privacy info manifest for my application. I am using stat to read not timestamp data from file. I wonder how in this case should I specify this info in the API usage? Should it be specified at all(since stat() is listed only in File Timestamp API)? Or maybe you can add stat to Disk space APIs and add one more reason there? Here is similar thread about this and nothing emerged so creating this to increase visibility of the problem: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/734750 Best regards, Konrad

Hooks with mandatory access control framework
Hello, I've come across information regarding macOS endpoint protection software: It seems Apple no longer allows them to create kernel extensions. It seems that endpoint software should now function with MACF by implementing hooks from userland. Does this mean the Endpoint Security Framework will soon become deprecated? I'm currently searching for a sample source code for MACF hooks, but I haven't found anything in the Apple developer documentation. Thanks

Apple Sign In for Web
Hello, I have created a Swift app which has Apple Sign In integrated with it. We now want to add Apple Sign In to a web app but can't seem to find enough documentation on how to do this. We have followed the instructions at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sign_in_with_apple/sign_in_with_apple_js/configuring_your_webpage_for_sign_in_with_apple and have ended up with a script like so: <head> <meta name="appleid-signin-client-id" content="colourworker.SPAD"> <meta name="appleid-signin-scope" content="name email"> <meta name="appleid-signin-redirect-uri" content="https://colourworker.com/apps/photofolia/applesignedin.html"> <meta name="appleid-signin-state" content="init"> <meta name="appleid-signin-nonce" content="NONCE"> <meta name="appleid-signin-use-popup" content="true"> </head> <body> <h1>Sign in with Apple</h1> <div id="appleid-signin" data-color="black" data-border="true" data-type="sign in"></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://appleid.cdn-apple.com/appleauth/static/jsapi/appleid/1/en_US/appleid.auth.js"></script> </head> </html> But have we populated the client-id, state, and NONCE correctly? When clicking on the Sign In with Apple button we get the error in this screenshot: I look forward to hearing from someone. Kind regards, Miguel

Email Delivery Issue via Private Relay Service
Hello community, In our application, we've implemented Apple ID for user authentication. Unfortunately, we forgot to register the associated domains and communication email addresses. This oversight has led to complications in email delivery via the private relay service. We've taken steps to fix the issue by reconfiguring the domains and communication email addresses. Post-adjustment, new user registrations are functioning properly. However, for users who registered before this fix, the problem persists. We followed the instructions provided on https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sign_in_with_apple/sign_in_with_apple_js/communicating_using_the_private_email_relay_service, and we also have SPF configured, which has passed validation in our administration. Has anyone encountered a similar issue, and if so, how did you resolve it? Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Privacy manifest requirement for SDKs
As the new requirement for Privacy manifests is coming this Spring 2024 (https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=r1henawx), Apple released a list of SDK's that need to comply with this requirement and provide a privacy manifest file: https://developer.apple.com/support/third-party-SDK-requirements/ I have some questions: Do i need to declare a privacy manifest file for the SDKs if i'm updating an old app that already includes one of these SDKs? Apple states "when you submit an app update that adds one of the listed SDKs as part of the update" which in my understanding applies only when an app adds an SDK for the first time in an app update. What happens with SDK's that are not in this list? Should every single SDK an app uses to include the privacy manifest file?

Privacy Manifest - Data use - How to specify what the type are Other Data Types?
I'm looking over data use categories for the privacy manifest here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/privacy_manifest_files/describing_data_use_in_privacy_manifests My app retrieves information such as OS Version, OS Name, locale info for the reason analytics. It also retrieves cellular infomation and device information for the reason app functionality. For this, I think it falls under "Other Data types" and the value "NSPrivacyCollectedDataTypeOtherDataTypes" in the privacy manifest. Do we need to specify further what that "other" data type is? How do I add "OS Information" or "Device Information" as part of the entry for "NSPrivacyCollectedDataTypeOtherDataTypes" in the manifest? Thanks

Memory Overhead Issues with ESF Framework During High Volume of NOTIFY Events
I refer to Google's ESF project code to handle NOTIFY events, but after my notifyQueue is set to QOS_CLASS_BACKGROUND, the process memory gets larger when a lot of events occur. Is there any way to fix this without affecting performance The code is as follows: notifyQueue = dispatch_queue_create("notify",dispatch_queue_attr_make_with_qos_class(DISPATCH_QUEUE_CONCURRENT_WITH_AUTORELEASE_POOL,QOS_CLASS_BACKGROUND, 0)); if (msg->action_type == ES_ACTION_TYPE_NOTIFY) { es_message_t *copied_msg = [self copy_message:msg]; if (!copied_msg) { return; } dispatch_async(self->_notifyQueue, ^{ @autoreleasepool { [self handle:copied_msg]; [self free_message:copied_msg]; } }); }

App Usage
I'm developing a mental wellness app, and I need to get user's screentime and app usage data and send it to my flask backend for analytics. Is it possible on iphone right now? I've looked into ScreenTime and DeviceActivity frameworks, but they're really poor in terms of examples and documentation, so I'm not sure if this is actually possible or not.
