According to https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/app_sandbox/discovering_and_diagnosing_app_sandbox_violations it is possible to view detailed violation reports for non-system services. Is it possible to do something similar for system services? I have encountered an issue where several (all?) of my Macbooks get into a sandbox violation situation (I assume). Below is in excerpt from logs focusing just on the sandbox violation. The errors are surrounded by XPC failures and errors. error 23:23:21.382263+0100 kernel Sandbox: Family(1316) deny(1) mach-lookup com.apple.contactsd.persistence error 23:23:24.385962+0100 kernel Sandbox: Family(1316) deny(1) mach-lookup com.apple.contactsd.persistence error 23:23:27.389910+0100 kernel Sandbox: Family(1316) deny(1) mach-lookup com.apple.contactsd.persistence error 23:23:36.408940+0100 kernel Sandbox: Family(1316) deny(1) mach-lookup com.apple.contactsd.persistence error 23:23:45.419593+0100 kernel Sandbox: Family(1316) deny(1) mach-lookup com.apple.contactsd.persistence error 23:23:54.432109+0100 kernel Sandbox: Family(1316) deny(1) mach-lookup com.apple.contactsd.persistence The above is just an except, and it seems that Family, imagent and searchpartyuseragent are trying to access com.apple.contactsd.persistance once per second or so and failing (there are also some attempts to reach com.apple.timed.xpc, but an insignificant amount in comparison to com.apple.contactsd.persistance). This in turn causes Diagnostics Reporter to start, and then end hastily almost every ten seconds. fault 23:23:05.903908+0100 Diagnostics Reporter Invalid launch. fault 23:23:16.038017+0100 Diagnostics Reporter Invalid launch. fault 23:23:26.136348+0100 Diagnostics Reporter Invalid launch. fault 23:23:36.274543+0100 Diagnostics Reporter Invalid launch. fault 23:23:46.414546+0100 Diagnostics Reporter Invalid launch. I have no idea how I did this, but I seemed to have messed up sandbox access rights to contacts for some system services?

I'm trying to set up Sign In With Apple on my .NET 7 Web App (Not sure how many people here use this). I followed the guide by Scott Brady here: https://www.scottbrady91.com/openid-connect/implementing-sign-in-with-apple-in-aspnet-core It reaches Apple Sign In OK, authenticates, and passes back to my server, but the callback responds with this error. OpenIdConnectProtocolException: Message contains error: 'invalid_client', error_description: 'error_description is null', error_uri: 'error_uri is null'. Googling hasn't helped much, other than I saw a post saying to wait 48 hours, which I have now done (not that that makes sense anyway). Any idea whats been done wrong? Code below, replacing sensitive data. Startup.cs .AddOpenIdConnect("apple", async options => { options.Authority = "https://appleid.apple.com"; // disco doc: https://appleid.apple.com/.well-known/openid-configuration options.ClientId = "com.rackemapp.applelogin"; // Service ID options.CallbackPath = "/signin-apple"; // corresponding to your redirect URI options.ResponseType = "code id_token"; // hybrid flow due to lack of PKCE support options.ResponseMode = "form_post"; // form post due to prevent PII in the URL options.UsePkce = false; // apple does not currently support PKCE (April 2021) options.DisableTelemetry = true; options.Scope.Clear(); // apple does not support the profile scope options.Scope.Add("openid"); options.Scope.Add("email"); options.Scope.Add("name"); options.Events.OnAuthorizationCodeReceived = context => { context.TokenEndpointRequest.ClientSecret = AppleTokenGenerator.CreateNewToken(); return Task.CompletedTask; }; }); Apple Token Generator public static class AppleTokenGenerator { public static string CreateNewToken() { const string iss = "[MyTeamId]"; // your account's team ID found in the dev portal const string aud = "https://appleid.apple.com"; const string sub = "com.rackemapp.applelogin"; // same as client_id var now = DateTime.UtcNow; // contents of your .p8 file const string privateKey = "[MyKey]"; var ecdsa = ECDsa.Create(); ecdsa?.ImportPkcs8PrivateKey(Convert.FromBase64String(privateKey), out _); var handler = new JsonWebTokenHandler(); return handler.CreateToken(new SecurityTokenDescriptor { Issuer = iss, Audience = aud, Claims = new Dictionary<string, object> { { "sub", sub } }, Expires = now.AddMinutes(5), // expiry can be a maximum of 6 months - generate one per request or re-use until expiration IssuedAt = now, NotBefore = now, SigningCredentials = new SigningCredentials(new ECDsaSecurityKey(ecdsa), SecurityAlgorithms.EcdsaSha256) }); } } Also attached, images of my keys and setp in developer portal

Hello, we implemented Apple Sign-In in our website long ago, and it worked well. Recently we have found a strange behaviour. The first time we make the request to the /auth/token endpoint we get an invalid_client error. Our client id is com.spicysparks.service.id If we make a request another time with exactly the same data it works fine. We noticed we get this error only when we try a newly generated client secret for the first time.

We have a game that provides a mechanism to log into the game with Sign in with Apple in a direct integration between the game and Apple (first mechanism). We also provide a mechanism to log into the game using OpenID connect with authorization from Apple but using a server in the middle that drives the process (second mechanism). It is important to mention that both mechanisms use the same oauth client. We have been able to switch from the first mechanism to the second successfully, but there is a problem with id_token. In the second mechanism we request the scopes "email", "openid" and "name", but in the retrieved id_token there is no information about the email. It happens for all users who previously signed in with Apple using the first mechanism (therefore there is a current link between the game and the user in AppleId). It does not happen with users who had no link between the game and the user and use the second mechanism, in this case we can retrieve the user information in the callback of the first call and the email in the id_token, as stated in the documentation. However, if users who had a link between the game and the AppleId delete the app and then log back in using the second mechanism, then we can get the email information with the exact same request. The request we use to obtain the authorized endpoint information (https://appleid.apple.com/auth/authorize) has these parameters: response_mode: query scope: email openid profile nonce: ... state: ... response_type: code Then we get the authentication code and get an id_token like this: { "iss":"https://appleid.apple.com", "aud":"{aud}", "exp":1705584621, "iat":1705498221, "sub":"{sub}", "nonce":"7f-PqBoXgxeDMOEu5Ysov0FjE9GvSYfq", "at_hash":"3kLcPBlwZP6aj_mscww5zA", "authentication_time":1705498218, "nonce_supported":true } Is there a way to retrieve the email for users who had the link and don't want to delete it or log back into the app? In the official Apple documentation it is stated that the id_token should have the email but this is not the case. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sign_in_with_apple/sign_in_with_apple_rest_api/authenticating_users_with_sign_in_with_apple#3383773

Problem Situation User membership withdrawal request → revoke API call It always returns status code 200, but once out of 5~10, it remains an app linked to the user's Apple ID. Re-request user Apple login → Email is returned as null Currently, the only solution is for users to manually delete apps linked to their Apple ID. Email sent when re-requesting Apple login When the above problem occurs, even if the Revoke API is called multiple times, the app linked to the user's Apple ID is not deleted, and when requesting Refresh Token validation, it has already expired.

Hello. On my game I have Apple Sing In option that is required to keep user high score, show name in game, and for other app functionality. Game is made on Unity. Now when I'm trying to port the game to Vision Pro, Im getting error that Authentication is not supported on this platform. It may be the plugin issue that I'm using(not sure yet). But I also didn't find any documentation for native code ( so I could make plugin that unity game could use). Question: does VisionOS support Apple Sing In in the applications? if yes please give me some resources. if no - is there any plans to add that functionality? Thanks.

Hello Apple ID support, When a user successfully login with Apple, the apple OAuth will produce a appleIdToken. From my understanding this token is best to not leave the user device. I have two sub-system that can take a appleIdToken and manages the token-refresh separately. In short: Apple -> appleIdToken sub-SystemA(appleIdToken) and sub-systemB(appleIdToken) sub-SystemA and sub-systemB has two separate token management/refresh The question: Is this allowed by the Apple identify server? Is the usecase of supplying appleIdToken to sub-SystemA and sub-systemB valid?

Hello everyone! I'm encountering an issue while trying to use the Sign in with Apple token revocation API. I've followed the steps outlined in the official documentation (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sign_in_with_apple/revoke_tokens), but when I consume the API, I receive a 200 status code instead of the expected code. I've double-checked my implementation and can't find any obvious errors. Has anyone else experienced this issue before? I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or advice on how to resolve this issue. Thank you in advance for your help!

It seems there was a new security feature added to macOS 15 - and now it asks every time after reboot if user wishes to continue and allow access the app to record screen and audio, while capture is blocked. Which renders remote access apps useless, a specially for headless computers like my Mac mini.

Hello, I have a fully functional webauthn relying party that uses passkeys and I am trying to implement an iOS sdk for it. On the server, the AASA file is valid and well served at /.well-known/assetlinks.json. I verified its validity with branch.io and that it is indeed cached by Apple's CDN (https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/service.domain.com), but even will all these I still get the following error when installing the app on a device and starting the passkey ceremony: Passkey authorization failed. Error: The operation couldn’t be completed. Application with identifier TEAM.com.APP is not associated with domain service.domain.com So I then checked the system log when installing the app on my iPhone, and under the swcd process (which is apparently responsible of fetching the AASA file) I found the following error: swcd: Domain is invalid. Will not attempt a download. The issue that I have is that my domain is actually an IDN, it has a special character in it. But everywhere I have used it, I converted it to ASCII (punycode). With this conversion, Apple's CDN is able to fetch the AASA file, and the passkey ceremony works fine on a browser. So I don't understand how the device (both iPhone or Mac) finds this domain to be invalid? In the app's entitlements, I added the capability for an associated domain, with webcredentials:service.domain.com with the domain name converted to ASCII (punycode) and developer mode doesn't address this issue as it appears when the app is installed (and is not related to Apple's CDN). The last thing I tried was to add the domain with special characters in the app's entitlements (for webcredentials:) but then Xcode was unable to install the app on the device, and gave the following error: Failed to verify code signature (A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found.) which happened only with a special character in the domain in the app's entitlements. All this leaves me kind of in a dead end, I understand Xcode or iOS/macOS has a hard time with IDNs and special characters (so do I), but I have no idea on how to solve this (without changing the domain name), so I would really appreciate any help. Thanks in advance. PS: I tested all this previously with another domain without special characters and it was working. It also had dashes ('-') in it and the new domain converted to ASCII is basically a regular domain with '-' in it so I suppose there is some kind of conversion made from ASCII back to special characters and that then, the domain is considered as invalid, but this doesn't really help me a lot... PS2: My devices are running on iOS 17.4.1 and macOS 14.4.1 with Xcode 15.2

Hi, It may be a stupid question, but we really wonder if there is a way for MDM to push a unique mTLS cert to our iOS application or if it can populate a client certificate in the iOS where our application can access it. Like browser app, how do browser mTLS certs get pushed? Thanks, Ying

I have an app (currently not released on App Store) which runs on both iOS and macOS. The app has widgets for both iOS and macOS which uses user preference (set in app) into account while showing data. Before upgrading to macOS 15 (until Sonoma) widgets were working fine and app was launching correctly, but after upgrading to macOS 15 Sequoia, every time I launch the app it give popup saying '“Kontest” would like to access data from other apps. Keeping app data separate makes it easier to manage your privacy and security.' and also widgets do not get user preferences and throw the same type of error on Console application when using logging. My App group for both iOS and macOS is 'group.com.xxxxxx.yyyyy'. I am calling it as 'UserDefaults(suiteName: Constants.userDefaultsGroupID)!.bool(forKey: "shouldFetchAllEventsFromCalendar")'. Can anyone tell, what am I doing wrong here?

Hello all - we have enabled our app users to create and sign in using their passkey. However - for some users, we get a NSLocalizedFailure reason exception that the app is not associated with the domain. We have ensured that the endpoint /.well-known/apple-app-site-association isnt blocking any requests. Like I said before, 90% of our users are able to successfully create and sign in with their passkey but we receive the above error for the remaining 10%. Any suggestions/guidance on how we can resolve this would be helpful and greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, I am currently trying to develop an authorization plugin using SFAuthorizationPluginView. My objective is to display a webView to the user for authentication purposes. I have based my work on the updated NameandPassword example : https://github.com/antoinebell/NameAndPassword. I have seen that the header for the SFAuthorizationPluginView class exists in Swift. However, I have not found any implementation examples of an authorization plugin in Swift. I have attempted to implement this on my own but am encountering difficulties displaying my embedded view within a ViewController. Is it possible to create an authorization plug-in in Swift ?

In our App, we store identity in keychain in a specific path var keychain: SecKeychain? let status = SecKeychainCreate(path, UInt32(password.count), password, false, nil, &keychain) guard status == errSecSuccess else { logger.error("Error in creating keychain: \(String(describing: SecCopyErrorMessageString(status, nil)))") throw KeychainError.keychainCreationError } Then later whenever process needs it. it open keychain, import it and uses it. status = SecPKCS12Import(identityData as CFData, [kSecImportExportPassphrase : password, kSecImportExportKeychain: keychain] as CFDictionary, &identityItems) authlog.info("Import status: \(status)") guard status == errSecSuccess else { authlog.error("Error in exporting identity : \(status) \(String(describing:SecCopyErrorMessageString(status, nil)))") throw ClientAuthError.identityFormationError } This worked well till sequoia beta 2. In Sequoia beta 3 and 4, this fails to import with error -25300 : The specified item could not be found in the keychain. one thing I noticed is import succeeds if the keychain is freshly created. when tried to reuse existing keychain it fails in import error. Is this a bug in beta or it any changes made in keychain level by Apple itself.

A client asked why we can't detect other apps installed on a device without an MDM profile, we explained this isn't possible due to privacy and security restrictions on iOS. A regular app cannot find other apps that are installed unless part of the same group. The client then told us to download SpyBuster (on the App Store) which somehow is collecting a list of Bundle IDs or names of all installed apps somehow. We were skeptical, but sure enough, the app showed us a list of apps we had installed. How is it doing this?!?! No MDM profile associated with the app. No special permissions requested. No access to anything shown in privacy &amp; security in settings. Is there a special entitlement we're not aware of? Just seems like they must be using a private API call to get this info but that would of course mean it should be pulled from the App Store. We'd love to have this capability in our apps if it's legit and accepted by App Store review. Thanks!

I currently do FaceID validation in my apps but it looks like Apple is offering FaceID ad the App level. Does this mean we still need to or can code for it in iOS 18 apps? Right now I've been working on migrating to iOS 18 using beta but my swift code just returns an "unknown error". From a developer perspective I can't find any examples or guidance on how handle FaceID currently in iOS 18 or going forward. Anyone have any insights or resources. This is the code that used to work but now under iOS 18 returns the error. Maybe the simulator and swift have not caught up but I don't think so given that it's been two beta release that I know of where this has not worked. class biometric { class func authenticateUser() async -> (Bool, Error?) { let context = LAContext() var error: NSError? if context.canEvaluatePolicy(.deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics, error: &error) { let biometryType = context.biometryType var reason = "Authenticate with \(biometryType)" if biometryType == .faceID { reason = "Authenticate with Face ID" } else if biometryType == .touchID { reason = "Authenticate with Touch ID" } do { let success = try await context.evaluatePolicy(.deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics, localizedReason: reason) LogEvent.print(module: "Authentication.biometric.authenticateUser", message: "Biometric authentication. success: \"\(success)\".") return (success, nil) } catch let evaluationError as LAError { LogEvent.print(module: "Authentication.biometric.authenticateUser", message: "Biometric authentication failed. evaluationError: \"\(evaluationError.localizedDescription)\"") handleEvaluationError(evaluationError) I do get past the .canEvaluatePolicy but fail on the .evaluatePolicy
