I'm making a GUI for '/usr/bin/hdiutil' which manipulates disk images.
Because 'hdiutil' requires the privilege to open/read raw disk devices,

launched instance of 'hdiutil' fails to open raw disk devices.

What is your exact command? What is the error message? Does it work on the command line? Did you try similar or other helpful commands in place?

[...] Should I give up to use security framework?
Do you think 'sudo' is safe for my purpose?

AFAIK, both should provide equal functionality.
