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.

From time to time I see folks run into error 65 when stapling a ticket to their notarised Mac software. This post explains the two common causes of that error.
If you have questions or comments, start a new thread here on the forums. Put it in the Code Signing > Notarization topic area so that I see it.

Resolving Error 65 When Stapling
If you directly distribute Mac software, you must sign and notarise your product so that it passes Gatekeeper. For information on how to do this, see:
Notarizing macOS software before distribution, if you use Xcode
Creating distribution-signed code for macOS, Packaging Mac software for distribution, and Customizing the notarization workflow otherwise
The last step of that process is to staple a ticket to your notarised product. This can fail with error 65. There are two common causes of that failure:
No appropriate ticket
Trust issues
The following sections explain how to recognise and resolve these issues.
Note You are not absolutely required to staple your product. See The Pros and Cons of Stapling for more on that topic.
No Appropriate Ticket
Consider the following stapling error:
% stapler staple "TestError65.dmg"
Processing: /Users/quinn/Desktop/TestError65 2025-03-03 22-12-47/TestError65.dmg
CloudKit query for TestError65.dmg (2/d812985247c75e94fd603f026991f96144a031af) failed due to "Record not found".
Could not find base64 encoded ticket in response for 2/d812985247c75e94fd603f026991f96144a031af
The staple and validate action failed! Error 65.
Note the Record not found message. This indicates that the stapling operation failed because there’s no appropriate ticket.
To investigate this, look at the notary log:
% notarytool-log b53042b6-4cbb-4cef-ade4-dae034a69947
{
…
"status": "Accepted",
…
"sha256": "f012735a6d53b17082c088627da4249c9988111d17e7a90c49aa64ebc6bae22e",

}
],
"issues": null
}
First, make sure that the status field is Accepted. If there’s some other value, the notary service didn’t generate a ticket at all! To understand why, look at the rest of the notary log for errors and warnings.
Assuming that your notarisation request was successful, look through the log for cdhash values. These represent the contents of the ticket generated by the notary service. Compare that list to the cdhash values of the code being signed:
% hdiutil attach "TestError65.dmg"
…
… /Volumes/Install TestError65
% codesign -d -vvv --arch arm64 "/Volumes/Install TestError65/TestError65.app"
…
CDHash=9627c72e53d44ae77513613e2ce33314bd5ef41e
…
% codesign -d -vvv --arch x86_64 "/Volumes/Install TestError65/TestError65.app"
…
CDHash=abc27b0f2daee77b9316de3c6844fbd9e234621c
…
Those are all present in the ticket. However, consider the cdhash of the disk image itself:
% codesign -d -vvv "TestError65.dmg"
…
CDHash=d812985247c75e94fd603f026991f96144a031af
…
That’s the cdhash that stapler is looking for:
CloudKit query for TestError65.dmg (2/d812985247c75e94fd603f026991f96144a031af) failed due to "Record not found".
But it’s not present in the notarised ticket.
Note The term cdhash stands for code directory hash. If you’re curious what that’s about, see TN3126 Inside Code Signing: Hashes and the Notarisation Fundamentals DevForums post.
What happened here is:
I built the app.
I signed it with my Developer ID code-signing identity.
I created a disk image from that app.
I signed that with my Developer ID code-signing identity.
I notarised that.
I then re-signed the disk image. This changes the cdhash in the code signature.
Now the disk image’s cdhash doesn’t match the cdhash in the ticket, so stapling fails.
To resolve this problem, make sure you’re stapling exactly the file that you submitted to the notary service. One good option is to compare the SHA-256 hash of the file you’re working on with the sha256 field in the notary log.
Trust Issues
Now consider this stapling error:
% stapler staple "TestError65.dmg"
Processing: /Users/quinn/TestError65.dmg
Could not validate ticket for /Users/quinn/TestError65.dmg
The staple and validate action failed! Error 65.
Note how it’s different from the previous one. Rather than saying that the ticket was not found, it says Could not validate ticket. So, stapler found the ticket for the file and then tried to validate it before doing the staple operation. That validation failed, and thus this error.
The most common cause of this problem is folks messing around with trust settings. Consider this:
% security dump-trust-settings
SecTrustSettingsCopyCertificates: No Trust Settings were found.
% security dump-trust-settings -d
SecTrustSettingsCopyCertificates: No Trust Settings were found.
Contrast it with this:
% security dump-trust-settings
SecTrustSettingsCopyCertificates: No Trust Settings were found.
% security dump-trust-settings -d
Number of trusted certs = 1
Cert 0: Apple Root CA - G3
Number of trust settings : 10
…
Someone has tweaked the trust settings for the Apple Root CA - G3 anchor. In fact, I used Keychain Access to mark the certificate as Always Trust. You’d think that’d avoid problems, but you’d be wrong. Our code signing machinery expects Apple’s anchor and intermediate certificates to have the default trust settings.
IMPORTANT Some trust settings overrides are fine. For example, on my main work Mac there are trust settings overrides for Apple internal anchors. This problem occurs when there are trust settings overrides for Apple’s standard anchor and intermediate certificates.
To fix this:
In Terminal, run the dump-trust-settings commands shown above and build a list of Apple certificates with trust settings overrides.
In Keychain Access, find the first problematic certificate in your list.
Note that there may be multiple instances of the certificate in different keychains. If that’s the case, follow these steps for each copy of the certificate.
Double click the certificate to open it in a window.
If the Trust section is collapsed, expand it.
Ensure that all the popups are set to their default values (Use System Defaults for the first, “no value specified” for the rest).
If they are, close the window and move on to step 8.
If not, set the popups to the default values and close the window. Closing the window may require authentication to save the trust settings.
Repeat steps until 2 through 7 for each of the problematic certificates you found in step 1.
When you’re done, run the dump-trust-settings commands again to confirm that your changes took effect.
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.

Why does local authentication call the custom PAM after unlocking from the screensaver?
Could this issue also be related to a code signing configuration that needs adjustment?

I keep having issues with my account. I have certificates that will not revoke. I create new certificates, then I create new profiles for development, distribution and for developer ID application distribution outside of the app store as well. With my app in Xcode, I can only get the Developer profile to work to allow builds. My distribution profile builds and then fails, with an error 5. The Developer ID Application profile will not even accept the profile in XCode, sighting that there is no code signing, yet I have checked things over and over again. Ontop of this, I had developers in the past in my team and they added a whole lot of certificates for Developer ID that I just cannot use now. I also cannot revoke them.
I have no active apps on the app store now, so I was wondering if Apple or someone can assist me in removing ALL the certificates, all the profiles and get a clean slate, so that I can setup everything from scratch again, because I have lost countless of hours getting nowhere and I cannot get Apple support to assist? Anyone been through this before?

I have created a Mac Catalyst version of the same app, and it was transferred from an old account to a new one. However, the Mac Catalyst build has been stuck in progress for several days when attempting to notarize it.
After many days, I got the rejection with the following error:
Team is not yet configured for notarization. Please contact Developer Programs Support at developer.apple.com under the topic Development and Technical / Other Development or Technical Questions.
I have already tried to create a new developer ID certificate, but it still has the same issue. On the other hand, the iOS app is working fine and has been published in the App Store.
Could you please assist us in resolving this issue as quickly as possible? Your prompt help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey everyone, I’m wondering if anyone has run into any issues with this. Before I uploaded, I guess maybe 20 assets of 1080 x 720, my notarization was taking around 2-3 minutes almost instant.
Now I’m looking at 30 minutes. I have no idea when the notarization is going to end. I’m wondering if asset size has any impact on notarization speed, and if so, is this going to be a one-time thing or is this going to happen with all my following builds? Let me know if anyone has run into anything similar or if the notarization service is just down right now.

I developed a macOS application and have already signed the pkg package. However, when I submitted it for notarization using the following command:
xcrun notarytool submit --signed.pkg --apple-id "**@gmail.com" --team-id "2*******M" --password "this is password" --wait
I received a "Rejected" status. The log provided the following details:
"logFormatVersion": 1,
"jobId": "f5f3751d-b449-4a2f-b905-32d38ab5963b",
"status": "Rejected",
"statusSummary": "Team is not yet configured for notarization. Please contact Developer Programs Support at developer.apple.com under the topic Development and Technical / Other Development or Technical Questions.",

Can you help me, thank you.

I started the notarization process for my electron app (just a browser window loading a URL) yesterday (26/03/2025) at around 05:23 GMT.
I noticed in a couple of posts here in the forum that it may sometimes take a day to notarize the first app submitted by a team, but it has been over 30 hours since I submitted the app for notarization
Here's the log.

Is there any reason why it is taking so long?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I recently got a consistent delay from notary tool. I have viewed all your suggestions and understand that it "occasionally" will have further review and take longer time, but then it will be faster.
However, in my case, my app although is accepted many times. It is still significantly delay.
It is a native macOS app called ConniePad. Whenever I submit, it took me 2 days or more to finish notarise, which significantly affect my business. Could you please have a look on it.
For log detail about the time, and the ids:

I submitted a Mac application for a safari ad blocker extension about 15 hours ago and it's still in progress. Is it normal for notarization to take this long? It's my first time submitting something for notarization so maybe that's why it's taking longer than expected?
