The notary service requires that all Mach-O images be linked against the macOS 10.9 SDK or later. This isn’t an arbitrary limitation. The hardened runtime, another notarisation requirement, relies on code signing features that were introduced along with macOS 10.9 and it uses the SDK version to check for their presence. Specifically, it checks the SDK version using the sdk field in the LC_BUILD_VERSION Mach-O load command (or the older LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX command). There are three common symptoms of this problem: When notarising your product, the notary service rejects a Mach-O image with the error The binary uses an SDK older than the 10.9 SDK. When loading a dynamic library, the system fails with the error mapped file has no cdhash, completely unsigned?. When displaying the code signature of a library, codesign prints this warning: % codesign -d vvv /path/to/your.dylib … Library validation warning=OS X SDK version before 10.9 does not support Library Validation … If you see any of these errors, read on… The best way to avoid this problem is to rebuild your code with modern tools. However, in some cases that’s not possible. Imagine if your app relies on the closed source libDodo.dylib library. That library’s vendor went out of business 10 years ago, and so the library hasn’t been updated since then. Indeed, the library was linked against the macOS 10.6 SDK. What can you do? The first thing to do is come up with a medium-term plan for breaking your dependency on libDodo.dylib. Relying on an unmaintained library is not something that’s sustainable in the long term. The history of the Mac is one of architecture transitions — 68K to PowerPC to Intel, 32- to 64-bit, and so on — and this unmaintained library will make it much harder to deal with the next transition. IMPORTANT I wrote the above prior to the announcement of the latest Apple architecture transition, Apple silicon. When you update your product to a universal binary, you might as well fix this problem on the Intel side as well. Do not delay that any further: While Apple silicon Macs are currently able to run Intel code using Rosetta 2, that’s not something you want to rely on in the long term. Heed this advice from About the Rosetta Translation Environment: Rosetta is meant to ease the transition to Apple silicon, giving you time to create a universal binary for your app. It is not a substitute for creating a native version of your app. But what about the short term? Historically I wasn’t able to offer any help on that front, but this has changed recently. Xcode 11 ships with a command-line tool, vtool, that can change the LC_BUILD_VERSION and LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX commands in a Mach-O. You can use this to change the sdk field of these commands, and thus make your Mach-O image ‘compatible’ with notarisation and the hardened runtime. Before doing this, consider these caveats: Any given Mach-O image has only a limited amount of space for load commands. When you use vtool to set or modify the SDK version, the Mach-O could run out of load command space. The tool will fail cleanly in this case but, if it that happens, this technique simply won’t work. Changing a Mach-O image’s load commands will break the seal on its code signature. If the image is signed, remove the signature before doing that. To do this run codesign with the --remove-signature argument. You must then re-sign the library as part of your normal development and distribution process. Remember that a Mach-O image might contain multiple architectures. All of the tools discussed here have an option to work with a specific architecture (usually -arch or --architecture). Keep in mind, however, that macOS 10.7 and later do not run on 32-bit Macs, so if your deployment target is 10.7 or later then it’s safe to drop any 32-bit code. If you’re dealing with a Mach-O image that includes 32-bit Intel code, or indeed PowerPC code, make your life simpler by removing it from the image. Use lipo for this; see its man page for details. It’s possible that changing a Mach-O image’s SDK version could break something. Indeed, many system components use the main executable’s SDK version as part of their backwards compatibility story. If you change a main executable’s SDK version, you might run into hard-to-debug compatibility problems. Test such a change extensively. It’s also possible, but much less likely, that changing the SDK version of a non-main executable Mach-O image might break something. Again, this is something you should test extensively. This list of caveats should make it clear that this is a technique of last resort. I strongly recommend that you build your code with modern tools, and work with your vendors to ensure that they do the same. Only use this technique as part of a short-term compatibility measure while you implement a proper solution in the medium term. For more details on vtool, read its man page. Also familiarise yourself with otool, and specifically the -l option which dumps a Mach-O image’s load commands. Read its man page for details.

Hi, we have .pkg install package consisting of various sub packages. One of them contains presets and needs to be installed the the default preset location /Library/Audio/Presets. If this non-binary preset package is the only one in a .pkg choice notarization fails with: "logFormatVersion": 1, "jobId": "*", "status": "Invalid", "statusSummary": "Archive contains critical validation errors", "statusCode": 4000, "archiveFilename": "mypackage.pkg.zip", "uploadDate": "2024-08-22T21:24:03.251Z", "sha256": "*", "ticketContents": null, "issues": [ { "severity": "error", "code": null, "path": "mypackage.pkg.zip", "message": "Package mypackage.pkg.zip has no signed executables or bundles. No tickets can be generated.", "docUrl": null, "architecture": null }, { "severity": "warning", "code": null, "path": "mypackage.pkg.zip/mypackage.pkg", "message": "b\"Invalid component package: mypackage_vstpreset Distribution file's value: #com.mycompany.mypackage.vstpreset.pkg\\n\"", "docUrl": null, "architecture": null } ] } Not sure, but maybe its worth noting that the causing sub packge only generates a warning, but the parent package seems to escalate this into an error. How can a non-binary sub package be included in a notarized parent package? Any hints or thoughts are highly appreciated, Thanks!

I'll do my best to explain my situation. Basically I have a plugin I'm trying to sign notarize and staple. My plugin is a .component but right now it is currently not bundled so its a .component folder. I cant open it in Xcode to bundle it and therefore cannot successfully bundle it that way. other things I've tried are failing with the error message logs showing the following messages. - "The signature does not include a secure timestamp." -"The binary is not signed." -"The signature of the binary is invalid." Those messages repeat several times and the very last one I receive is -"The contents of the package at ***** could not be extracted." So what I'd like to know is what can I do to my .component folder (all contents are in it so I can successfully sign it, timestamp it and submit successfully using notarytool? Thank you!

Hello. I am developing an electron app with vscode. And I have some problems while signing and notarizing. I signed it with electron-osx-sign command. Then I tried notarize using xcrun notarytool submit .zip --keychian-profile "NotaryCredential" --wait. but the result says it is invalid. so I show the notarize log. Below is the log file. It says some framework bundles are not signatured. Please check it and let me know what is the problem. Thank you. notarize log.txt

It has been 3 days and it is still in progress. As you can see in the history, I retried a few hours after the initial attempt, both are stuck. For what it's worth, this is my first notary attempt on this Apple Developer Account, I am aware that first-time submission can take longer. What should I do at this point? Wait another few days? Is there a human in the loop that needs to manually allow my submission? I have seen posts about this for the last 2 years. Seems like Apple is not going to do anything about it, xcrun notarytool history --keychain-profile '[redacted]' Successfully received submission history. history -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-11-30T01:59:08.408Z id: 3de4f35a-a950-4b34-8a74-21252b3e49a4 name: Notes.ai.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2024-11-29T20:49:53.437Z id: 268e5416-640c-419f-b22a-efe55212b50a name: Notes.ai.zip status: In Progress

I am reaching out regarding a persistent issue I have been facing with code signing. Despite extensive troubleshooting, I am unable to resolve the problem, and I would greatly appreciate your assistance. When attempting to sign my electron application with codesign with the following command: codesign --keychain ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain --sign “Developer ID Application: MYNAME (DEV-ID)” --force --timestamp --options runtime --verbose=4 dist/mac-arm64/my.app I receive the following error message: “Warning: unable to build chain to self-signed root for signer ‘Developer ID Application: MYNAME (DEV-ID)‘“. This prevents me from successfully completing the code signing and notarization process. To resolve this, I have meticulously tried to troubleshoot the problem. Here are the steps taken so far: Imported Certificates into Keychains: I imported all necessary certificates (including Developer ID Application, Developer ID Certification Authority, Apple Root CA and Apple Root CA - G2) into the keychain. I tested with both the System and Login keychains (one at a time to avoid errors due to duplicates) Checked Trust Settings: I confirmed that the trust settings for the certificates are properly configured to “Always Trust.” I verified the private key is present in Keychain Access and is properly linked to the public certificate. Ensured valid identity: I ensured that the correct Developer ID identity is valid and the associated private key is available (security find-identity -v -p codesigning and security find-key -t private | grep “MY NAME”) Ensured keychain access permissions: I ensured that the respective keychain has access permissions (security set-key-partition-list -S apple-tool:,apple: -s -k ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain) Verified matching Issuer and Subject to build certificate chain: I verified that the Issuer and Subject fields in the certificates show the correct references to build the certificate chain. Deleted and Re-imported Certificates: I deleted and re-imported the certificates multiple times to ensure there were no import issues or corruption in the certificates. Tested simplified setup: I attempted to sign simple files, such as a plain .txt file, using the Developer ID Application certificate I also attempted signing with minimal flags to rule out any issues with the app structure or build configuration Updated Xcode Command Line Tools One potential factor is that I am signing the application on a different machine from the one where the certificates were originally generated. I included the private key when exporting the certificate as a .p12 file from the original computer and imported it into the second computer’s keychain. This second computer is not connected to iCloud, and I suspect this could potentially affect the signing process. Despite all these efforts, the issue persists, and I am unable to identify the root cause. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on resolving this matter so I can successfully complete the code signing and notarization process. Thank you for your time and support.

Hi Everyone, Just a quick, and what is probably a really simple question. Do I require a 'Paid' Apple Developer account if I just wish to notarise my application for use on my local network. I don't see myself needing to use the App Store in the near future. I know I can manually add the app and authorise it, but I'd like to avoid this. Kindly Ryn

We notarize all of our apps as part of our nightly build. Every few weeks Apple changes something in the developer agreement, and therefore require the primary account holder to accept the new terms. However, this means our nightly builds break until the terms are accepted, which is a true pain in the ***. Is there some way to tell notarytool to force the notarization? Or tell the lawyers to chill tf out? This seems to happen every 2-4 weeks.

Hello, I've developed an application using Electron with Javacript. I have managed to deploy to both Windows and the web but having trouble deploying the application to my Mac users. It's my first time deploying an application for Mac but feel like I'm stuck at the last hurdle and out of ideas so I'm reaching out for help. My application is successfully signing but during the build and when my Notarize.js is running it seems to get stuck indefinitely. I can check and see the status of the Notarize attempts but they seem to be stuck "In Progress". Here are the logs. Successfully received submission history. history -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-06T00:59:45.245Z id: 1dc39b5f-fdca-4bf2-a6f6-fa793de2786e name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-04T08:01:36.168Z id: c575b015-edd6-4e09-8da5-7ae09f4f67db name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T08:30:31.528Z id: 570ae540-8cce-4418-ab09-7f6be33dc245 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T07:57:56.701Z id: 42748de8-026a-4663-9fd2-88c7608588d3 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T06:30:19.569Z id: 5140caa0-df14-491a-b148-82015f9856da name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T05:56:28.916Z id: 535c6be1-4999-4b3e-9766-42512a8deb67 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T02:51:04.893Z id: ead2268c-62b2-4b4b-8850-c1cdb5313d6a name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T01:50:51.954Z id: d0c44281-a788-4704-a057-4620d284516d name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-03T00:48:54.445Z id: 3d13727c-06a3-49d7-902b-4001522107c3 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T13:35:26.715Z id: 1823a550-a9ff-467a-8a60-dd3e42305258 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T13:23:41.894Z id: cbc341a2-9a51-43d6-83ae-713443c84fec name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T12:21:44.561Z id: 1af34419-655f-49b8-bea0-05b4232c46a7 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T11:34:03.732Z id: 8c4ab3b5-2ea9-4220-9667-94011bcf76fb name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T11:19:16.052Z id: 093dfb8a-9058-417d-acd3-8ea5d0bb654a name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T11:13:14.676Z id: 556b7c1c-d114-4717-b0f7-4f1614ada845 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T10:52:36.834Z id: ce3d3c8a-d218-4978-8757-2ca9d12aad76 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T09:27:13.535Z id: b65ec764-baab-444d-809b-e4242d70548b name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T09:27:01.176Z id: be228acc-e6a2-48f2-937b-5b2962275052 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T09:19:19.182Z id: d99fc10b-c424-4d0c-a2aa-37a9e9165d91 name: Popcorn-1.0.0.dmg status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T08:55:43.064Z id: 2e7f8df7-9c0b-4dd0-8df7-8f3428c0bfa0 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T08:19:48.676Z id: 678355da-e413-4b1a-92a8-776a6ff6a055 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:58:48.278Z id: 8591f8d7-1d57-4e80-af90-d77190160a20 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:54:41.193Z id: f029dfeb-3f14-4f65-83e2-d9356ef6ac00 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:27:50.613Z id: 574f2563-d533-4885-947a-2f57170196af name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T07:09:54.203Z id: 589f7f3a-d231-4911-8ad6-9d2c15a61ac0 name: popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T05:39:02.574Z id: 9edd43de-6d14-4743-87fc-ab570bee7399 name: Popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T04:36:12.342Z id: ba02116d-1aad-4521-8667-ad086b14c1cb name: Popcorn.zip status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-02T03:22:49.185Z id: b8585c81-b7f5-4c35-9bd6-62157c6ce4bc name: Popcorn.zip status: In Progress

We are developing a custom login service including custom PAM module. While it initially works correctly after installation on macOS, it becomes blocked by the system during privilege escalation (coreauthd) after unlocking the screensaver. The custom PAM module has been signed with a Developer ID certificate and submitted for notarization using notarytool. And passed staple check. spctl -at open --context context:primary-signature -v pam_custom.so: accepted source=Notarized Developer ID Here are the detail steps: Install the custom PAM file under /usr/local/lib/pam/. Ensure SIP (System Integrity Protection) is enabled. Log in to the Mac using the custom login service developed with the custom PAM module. Successfully log in. Open System Settings > Touch ID & Password. Click Add Fingerprint to trigger local authentication. This local authentication can be passed using Touch ID without invoking the custom PAM. Cancel adding fingerprints. Allow the Mac to idle until the screensaver is triggered. Unlock the screen using the custom PAM. Go to System Settings > Touch ID & Password and click Add Fingerprint again. This time, local authentication triggers the custom PAM, but it always fails. The system log shows that the custom PAM is not found.

Could this issue also be related to a code signing configuration that needs adjustment?

Hi, Since about 2 weeks notarytool is not very reliable on our CI/CD server. The tool either exists without printing any reason (killed by a signal; not caused by timeout - we have 6h timeouts and the tool gets killed after about 30 mins) or the process takes a very long time e.g. 2h to complete. We use the same pipeline since at least 2 years and we did not have this problem before. Some problematic calls: createdDate: 2025-01-15T14:50:22.545Z id: ca0faad3-789a-4842-a8c9-14aa7c2297a9 name: xxxxxx status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-15T14:33:06.813Z id: 22df0da8-70de-4dd9-935d-a26055242014 name: xxxxxx status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-15T14:18:36.436Z id: 5729b836-69f0-4526-b1d2-7743bd4d57a6 name: xxxxxx status: In Progress -------------------------------------------------- createdDate: 2025-01-15T14:18:31.716Z id: 58f3c7a1-96bd-4f5d-8a3c-6860f925659e name: xxxxxx status: In Progress Can anyone check why the tool is taking now way more time than before to process a submission? The app that we are notarizing did not change that much.

Hello, I've been trying to notarize a Unity 2023.2 app since yesterday, but our submissions stay stuck in In Progress. The first one has been running for 18 hours now with no signs of stopping, and two more attempts have been made since with no results. Here are the submission IDs in case someone on the team wants to take a look: 00ef6def-601b-46f3-a94f-699d8956a28f d03f5748-2261-430c-934e-14fa9679afd9 a42d3b5c-3cdb-4bf2-9c86-c92320358ff3 Thank you!

I have built a flutter desktop app and I notarized it. I have to distribute it directly as I cannot turn on App Sandboxing due to the functions included in the application. I created a build of the app from Xcode and then uploaded it for notarization and it was successfully notarized. If I compress that app into a .zip and share it over the internet, it successfully opens on any computer. But when I create a dmg using appdmg from npm and I try to distribute it, it does not open and shows me the option to either move to bin or cancel. When I notarize the dmg using the command: xcrun notarytool submit "YourApp.dmg" --apple-id "email" --password "app-specific-password" --team-id "YOUR_TEAM_ID" --wait It notarizes successfully. I have also done: xcrun stapler staple "YourApp.dmg" And validated it but it does not seem to work when I distribute it over the internet by uploading on my website. It is a bit strange that when I distribute the notarized app, it does not show any error when distributed over the internet by uploading on my website and then downloading but for a notarized dmg, which is properly signed, it gives that error that wether move to bin or do nothing. Would love someone's help on this!
