Any workaround for this?

Our automation activities are blocked due to this. File uploads are 40 % of our application functionality.

is this resolved?

sendKeys not working for any textbox using selenium safaridriver.
I'm using Mac OS X- 10.13.6 and safari version as 13.1.2.

Is this some version compatibility issue? If yes, which is the stable combination recommended to be used for automation testing using safaridriver?
