I have been trying to find a way to be able to sign some data with private key of an identity in login keychain without raising any prompts.
I am able to do this with system keychain (obviously with correct permissions and checks) but not with login keychain. It always ends up asking user for their login password.
Here is how the code looks, roughly,
NSDictionary *query = @{
(__bridge id)kSecClass: (__bridge id)kSecClassIdentity,
(__bridge id)kSecReturnRef: @YES,
(__bridge id)kSecMatchLimit: (__bridge id)kSecMatchLimitAll
};
CFTypeRef result = NULL;
OSStatus status = SecItemCopyMatching((__bridge CFDictionaryRef)query, (CFTypeRef *)&result);
NSArray *identities = ( NSArray *)result;
SecIdentityRef identity = NULL;
for (id _ident in identities) {
// pick one as required
}
SecKeyRef privateKey = NULL;
OSStatus status = SecIdentityCopyPrivateKey(identity, &privateKey);
NSData *strData = [string dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
unsigned char hash[CC_SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH];
CC_SHA256(strData.bytes, (CC_LONG)strData.length, hash);
NSData *digestData = [NSData dataWithBytes:hash length:CC_SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH];
CFErrorRef cfError = NULL;
NSData *signature = (__bridge_transfer NSData *)SecKeyCreateSignature(privateKey,
kSecKeyAlgorithmRSASignatureDigestPKCS1v15SHA256,
(__bridge CFDataRef)digestData,
&cfError);
Above code raises these system logs in console
default 08:44:52.781024+0000 securityd client is valid, proceeding
default 08:44:52.781172+0000 securityd code requirement check failed (-67050), client is not Apple-signed
default 08:44:52.781233+0000 securityd displaying keychain prompt for /Applications/Demo.app(81692)
If the key is in login keychain, is there any way to do SecKeyCreateSignature without raising prompts? What does client is not Apple-signed mean?

Can you please give me a hand with importing certificates under MacOS?
I want to connect to Wi-Fi with 802.1X authentication (EAP-TLS) using a certificate that my homebrew application imported into my data protection keychain, but the imported certificate does not show up and I cannot select the certificate.
It also does not show up in the Keychain Access app.
One method I have tried is to import it into the data protection keychain by using the SecItemAdd function and setting kSecUseDataProtectionKeychain to true, but it does not work.
Is there a better way to do this?
ID:
for id in identities {
let identityParams: [String: Any] = [
kSecValueRef as String: id,
kSecReturnPersistentRef as String: true,
kSecUseDataProtectionKeychain as String: true
]
let addIdentityStatus = SecItemAdd(identityParams as CFDictionary, nil)
if addIdentityStatus == errSecSuccess {
print("Successfully added the ID.: \(addIdentityStatus)")
} else {
print("Failed to add the ID.: \(addIdentityStatus)")
}
}
Certificate:
for cert in certificates {
let certParams: [String: Any] = [
kSecValueRef as String: cert,
kSecReturnPersistentRef as String: true,
kSecUseDataProtectionKeychain as String: true
]
let addCertStatus = SecItemAdd(certParams as CFDictionary, nil)
if addCertStatus == errSecSuccess {
print("Successfully added the certificate.: (\(addCertStatus))")
} else {
print("Failed to add the certificate.: (\(addCertStatus))")
}
}
Private key:
for privateKey in keys {
let keyTag = UUID().uuidString.data(using: .utf8)!
let keyParams: [String: Any] = [
kSecAttrApplicationTag as String: keyTag,
kSecValueRef as String: privateKey,
kSecReturnPersistentRef as String: true,
kSecUseDataProtectionKeychain as String: true
]
let addKeyStatus = SecItemAdd(keyParams as CFDictionary, nil)
if addKeyStatus == errSecSuccess {
print("Successfully added the private key.: \(addKeyStatus)")
} else {
print("Failed to add the private key.: \(addKeyStatus)")
}
}
Our background monitoring application uses a Unix executable that requests Screen Recording permission via CGRequestScreenCaptureAccess(). This worked correctly in macOS Tahoe 26.0.1, but broke in 26.1.
Issue:
After calling CGRequestScreenCaptureAccess() in macOS Tahoe 26.1:
System dialog appears and opens System Settings
Our executable does NOT appear in the Screen Recording list
Manually adding via "+" button grants permission internally, but the executable still doesn't show in the UI
Users cannot verify or revoke permissions
Background:
Unix executable runs as a background process (not from Terminal)
Uses Accessibility APIs to retrieve window titles
Same issue occurs with Full Disk Access permissions
Environment:
macOS Tahoe 26.1 (worked in 26.0.1)
Background process (not launched from Terminal)
Questions:
Is this a bug or intentional design change in 26.1?
What's the recommended approach for background executables to properly register with TCC?
Are there specific requirements (Info.plist, etc.) needed?
This significantly impacts user experience as they cannot manage permissions through the UI.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
I am developing a daemon-based product that needs a cryptographic, non-spoofable proof of machine identity so a remote management server can grant permissions based on the physical machine.
I was thinking to create a signing key in the Secure Enclave and use a certificate signed by that key as the machine identity. The problem is that the Secure Enclave key I can create is only accessible from user context, while my product runs as a system daemon and must not rely on user processes or launchAgents.
Could you please advise on the recommended Apple-supported approaches for this use case ?
Specifically, Is there a supported way for a system daemon to generate and use an unremovable Secure Enclave key during phases like the pre-logon, that doesn't have non user context (only the my application which created this key/certificate will have permission to use/delete it)
If Secure Enclave access from a daemon is not supported, what Apple-recommended alternatives exist for providing a hardware-backed machine identity for system daemons?
I'd rather avoid using system keychain, as its contents may be removed or used by root privileged users.
The ideal solution would be that each Apple product, would come out with a non removable signing certificate, that represent the machine itself (lets say that the cetificate name use to represent the machine ID), and can be validated by verify that the root signer is "Apple Root CA"
I am using the CryptoKit SecureEnclave enum to generate Secure Enclave keys. I've got a couple of questions:
What is the lifetime of these keys?
When I don't store them somewhere, how does the Secure Enclave know they are gone? Do backups impact these keys? I.e. can I lose access to the key when I restore a backup?
Do these keys count to the total storage capacity of the Secure Enclave?
If I recall correctly, the Secure Enclave has a limited storage capacity. Do the SecureEnclave key instances count towards this storage capacity?
What is the dataRepresentation and how can I use this?
I'd like to store the Secure Enclave (preferably not in the Keychain due to its limitations). Is it "okay" to store this elsewhere, for instance in a file or in the UserDefaults?
Can the dataRepresentation be used in other apps?
If I had the capability of extracting the dataRepresentation as an attacker, could I then rebuild that key in my malicious app, as the key can be rebuilt with the Secure Enclave on the same device, or are there measures in place to prevent this (sandbox, bundle id, etc.)
Hello!
I do know apple does not support electron, but I do not think this is an electron related issue, rather something I am doing wrong. I'd be curious to find out why the keychain login is happenning after my app has been signed with the bundleid, entitlements, and provision profile.
Before using the provision profile I did not have this issue, but it is needed for assessments feature.
I'm trying to ship an Electron / macOS desktop app that must run inside Automatic Assessment Configuration. The build signs and notarizes successfully, and assessment mode itself starts on Apple-arm64 machines, but every single launch shows the system dialog that asks to allow access to the "login" keychain. The dialog appears on totally fresh user accounts, so it's not tied to anything I store there.
It has happened ever since I have added the provision profile to the electron builder to finally test assessment out.
entitlements.inherit.plist keys
<key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit</key> <true/>
<key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory</key> <true/>
entitlements.plist keys:
<key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit</key> <true/>
<key>com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory</key> <true/>
<key>com.apple.developer.automatic-assessment-configuration</key> <true/>
I'm honestly not sure whether the keychain is expected, but I have tried a lot of entitlement combinations to get rid of It. Electron builder is doing the signing, and we manually use the notary tool to notarize but probably irrelevant.
mac: {
notarize: false,
target: 'dir',
entitlements: 'buildResources/entitlements.mac.plist',
provisioningProfile: 'buildResources/xyu.provisionprofile',
entitlementsInherit: 'buildResources/entitlements.mac.inherit.plist',
Any lead is welcome!

My app Mocawave is a music player distributed through the Mac App Store. It declares specific audio document types (public.mp3, com.microsoft.waveform-audio, public.mpeg-4-audio,
public.aac-audio) in its CFBundleDocumentTypes with a Viewer role.
When a user sets Mocawave as the default app for audio files and double-clicks an MP3 downloaded from the internet (which has the com.apple.quarantine extended attribute), macOS displays
the alert:
"Apple could not verify [filename] is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy."
This does not happen when:
Opening the same file via NSOpenPanel from within the app
Opening the same file with Apple's Music.app or QuickTime Player
The app is:
Distributed through the Mac App Store
Sandboxed (com.apple.security.app-sandbox)
Uses com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write entitlement
The file being opened is a regular audio file (MP3), not an executable. Since the app is sandboxed and distributed through the App Store, I expected it to have sufficient trust to open
quarantined data files without triggering Gatekeeper warnings — similar to how Music.app and QuickTime handle them.
Questions:
Is there a specific entitlement or Info.plist configuration that allows a sandboxed Mac App Store app to open quarantined audio files without this alert?
Is this expected behavior for third-party App Store apps, or could this indicate a misconfiguration on my end?
Environment: macOS 15 (Sequoia), app built with Swift/SwiftUI, targeting macOS 13+.
Hello,
I have a password manager app and have noticed a new feature in AutoFill & Passwords called "Set Up Codes In". I see that my competitors have been able to implement this feature but cannot find any documentation on how to do this.
How can I make it so my app can support this feature. Any help to pointing me to the documentation or otherwise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello, I have a password manager app and would like to help my user's to enable the Safari autofill capability. I've made the password credential extension and that is working great. I just need to help my user's enable the feature. I could point them to Settings->General->AutoFill & Password and instruct them to turn the feature on.
However, I've noticed that my competitors are able to present an alert directly from their app to turn the feature on (without going to settings at all).
I can't find any documentation on how to do this?
Thanks for your help!

Hello,
we are using DeviceCheck – App Attest in a production iOS app. The integration has been live for some time and works correctly for most users, but a small subset of users encounter non-deterministic failures that we are unable to reproduce internally.
Environment
iOS 14+
Real devices only (no simulator)
App Attest capability enabled
Correct App ID, Team ID and App Attest entitlement
Production environment
Relevant code
let service = DCAppAttestService.shared
service.generateKey { keyId, error in
// key generation
}
service.attestKey(keyId, clientDataHash: hash) { attestation, error in
// ERROR: com.apple.devicecheck.error 3 / 4
}
service.generateAssertion(keyId, clientDataHash: clientDataHash) { assertion, error in
// ERROR: com.apple.devicecheck.error 3 / 4
}
For some users we intermittently receive:
com.apple.devicecheck.error error 3
com.apple.devicecheck.error error 4
Characteristics:
appears random
affects only some users/devices
sometimes resolves after time or reinstall
not reproducible on our test devices
NSError contains no additional diagnostic info
Some questions:
What is the official meaning of App Attest errors 3 and 4?
Are these errors related to key state, device conditions, throttling, or transient App Attest service issues?
Is there any recommended way to debug or gain more insight when this happens in production?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as this impacts real users and is difficult to diagnose.
Thank you.
Seeing the following error when attempting automatic passkey upgrade - [Warning] NotAllowedError: The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission.
We're trying to enable Automatic passkey upgrade (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2024/10125/?time=38) for our website but it's not working from our testing on iOS 18.2 and 18.3 Beta Safari.
The flow on our website looks like:
the customers use autofill to fill out email and password on the sign-in page (abc.com/signin)
PublicKeyCredential.getClientCapabilities is called to check if conditionalCreate supported.
land on another page of our website (abc.com/pageX), which calls navigator.credentials.create with mediation conditional (Right after sign-in).
We checked that we followed the steps in above video: Allow automatic passkey upgrades is enabled, mediation is set to conditional and password autofill is used to signed in. However, Safari threw an error [Warning] NotAllowedError: The request is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission.
Can Apple help guide us if anything is missed here?

Issue Summary
I'm encountering a DCError.invalidInput error when calling DCAppAttestService.shared.generateAssertion() in my App Attest implementation. This issue affects only a small subset of users - the majority of users can successfully complete both attestation and assertion flows without any issues. According to Apple Engineer feedback, there might be a small implementation issue in my code.
Key Observations
Success Rate: ~95% of users complete the flow successfully
Failure Pattern: The remaining ~5% consistently fail at assertion generation
Key Length: Logs show key length of 44 characters for both successful and failing cases
Consistency: Users who experience the error tend to experience it consistently
Platform: Issue observed across different iOS versions and device types
Environment
iOS App Attest implementation
Using DCAppAttestService for both attestation and assertion
Custom relying party server communication
Issue affects ~5% of users consistently
Key Implementation Details
1. Attestation Flow (Working)
The attestation process works correctly:
// Generate key and attest (successful for all users)
self.attestService.generateKey { keyId, keyIdError in
guard keyIdError == nil, let keyId = keyId else {
return completionHandler(.failure(.dcError(keyIdError as! DCError)))
}
// Note: keyId length is consistently 44 characters for both successful and failing users
// Attest key with Apple servers
self.attestKey(keyId, clientData: clientData) { result in
// ... verification with RP server
// Key is successfully stored for ALL users (including those who later fail at assertion)
}
}
2. Assertion Flow (Failing for ~5% of Users with invalidInput)
The assertion generation fails for a consistent subset of users:
// Get assertion data from RP server
self.assertRelyingParty.getAssertionData(kid, with: data) { result in
switch result {
case .success(let receivedData):
let session = receivedData.session
let clientData = receivedData.clientData
let hash = clientData.toSHA256() // SHA256 hash of client data
// THIS CALL FAILS WITH invalidInput for ~5% of users
// Same keyId (44 chars) that worked for attestation
self.attestService.generateAssertion(kid, clientDataHash: hash) { assertion, err in
guard err == nil, let assertion = assertion else {
// Error: DCError.invalidInput
if let err = err as? DCError, err.code == .invalidKey {
return reattestAndAssert(.invalidKey, completionHandler)
} else {
return completionHandler(.failure(.dcError(err as! DCError)))
}
}
// ... verification logic
}
}
}
3. Client Data Structure
Client data JSON structure (identical for successful and failing users):
// For attestation (works for all users)
let clientData = ["challenge": receivedData.challenge]
// For assertion (fails for ~5% of users with same structure)
var clientData = ["challenge": receivedData.challenge]
if let data = data { // Additional data for assertion
clientData["account"] = data["account"]
clientData["amount"] = data["amount"]
}
4. SHA256 Hash Implementation
extension Data {
public func toSHA256() -> Data {
return Data(SHA256.hash(data: self))
}
}
5. Key Storage Implementation
Using UserDefaults for key storage (works consistently for all users):
private let keyStorageTag = "app-attest-keyid"
func setKey(_ keyId: String) -> Result<(), KeyStorageError> {
UserDefaults.standard.set(keyId, forKey: keyStorageTag)
return .success(())
}
func getKey() -> Result<String?, KeyStorageError> {
let keyId = UserDefaults.standard.string(forKey: keyStorageTag)
return .success(keyId)
}
Questions
User-Specific Factors: Since this affects only ~5% of users consistently, could there be device-specific, iOS version-specific, or account-specific factors that cause invalidInput?
Key State Validation: Is there any way to validate the state of an attested key before calling generateAssertion()? The key length (44 chars) appears normal for both successful and failing cases.
Keychain vs UserDefaults: Could the issue be related to using UserDefaults instead of Keychain for key storage? Though this works for 95% of users.
Race Conditions: Could there be subtle race conditions or timing issues that only affect certain users/devices?
Error Recovery: Is there a recommended way to handle this error? Should we attempt re-attestation for these users?
Additional Context & Debugging Attempts
Consistent Failure: Users who experience this error typically experience it on every attempt
Key Validation: Both successful and failing users have identical key formats (44 character strings)
Device Diversity: Issue observed across different device models and iOS versions
Server Logs: Our server successfully provides challenges and processes attestation for all users
Re-attestation: Forcing re-attestation sometimes resolves the issue temporarily, but it often recurs
The fact that 95% of users succeed with identical code suggests there might be some environmental or device-specific factor that we're not accounting for. Any insights into what could cause invalidInput for a subset of users would be invaluable.
Critical Privacy and Security Issue: Spotlight disregards explicit exclusions and exposes user files
Apple has repeatedly ignored my reports about a critical privacy issue in Spotlight on macOS 26, and the problem persists in version 26.3 RC. This is not a minor glitch, it is a fundamental breach of user trust and privacy.
Several aspects of Spotlight fail to respect user settings:
• Hidden apps still exposed: In the Apps section (Cmd+1), Spotlight continues to display apps marked with the hidden flag, even though they should remain invisible.
• Clipboard reactivation: The clipboard feature repeatedly turns itself back on after logout or restart, despite being explicitly disabled by the user.
• Excluded files revealed: Most concerning, Spotlight exposes files in Suggestions and Recents (Cmd+3) even when those files are explicitly excluded under System Settings > Spotlight > Search Privacy.
This behavior directly violates user expectations and system settings. It is not only a major privacy issue but also a security risk, since sensitive files can be surfaced without consent.
Apple must address this immediately. Users rely on Spotlight to respect their privacy configurations, and the current behavior undermines both trust and security.
we can get token but when send to verity from apple. it reture Error : {"responseCode":"400","responseMessage":"Missing or incorrectly formatted device token payload"}
Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing an intermittent issue with Keychain data loss on the latest iOS Beta 2. In about 7% of cases, users report that previously saved Keychain items are missing when the app is relaunched — either after a cold start or simply after being killed and reopened.
Here are the key observations:
The issue occurs sporadically, mostly once per affected user, but in 3 cases it has happened 4 times.
No explicit deletion is triggered from the app.
No system logs or error messages from Apple indicate any Keychain-related actions.
The app attempts to access Keychain items, but they are no longer available.
This behavior is inconsistent with previous iOS versions and is not reproducible in development environments.
This raises concerns about:
Whether this is a bug in the beta or an intentional change in Keychain behavior.
Whether this could affect production apps when the final iOS version is released.
The lack of any warning or documentation from Apple regarding this behavior.
Has anyone else encountered similar issues? Any insights, workarounds, or official clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

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

Specifically, is there a manual/link somewhere that can allow me to interpret:
authentication-failure: --S -14090
and
pam_result: X-S 9
I am developing a background program that is included in the app as an extension. I would like to include logic to check the teamID and code signature validity of the program I created to ensure that it has not been tampered with. Is this possible?
Hello,
I’m trying to remove the “Sign in with Apple” for my app via the iOS settings (also tried on a Mac, and on the web via account.apple.com).
When I tap “Stop Using”, nothing happens, the dialog disappear but the app remains listed.
Someone said on a forum that the issue is linked with the ServiceId that doesn't exist anymore. But how to recover it ? And anyway this behavior is unintended and creates a gap in the process.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a known fix, or should I contact Apple Support directly for server-side revocation?
Thank you!

Trying to make a new developer account but says I cannot. Here are the variables.
I have a personal icloud account, it was tied to a developer organization account for an app and company I shut down. I let that developer account expire. Both tied to my mobile number. I can access it but cannot do anything.
Trying to setup a new organization developer account using that mobile phone number, but it will not let me create the account. (have a new app/company)
Used a different phone number and still got the message that I could not create a new account at this time.
