Thanks much for confirming!

I’m not sure what level of xnu-xyzabc you have for open source, but it confirms that they are deprecated. Right after ( or around the time), someone updated the release note to reflect the fact that they are deprecated . Hope, soon we get to see some example of Endpoint security in the source/workspce form, so that we can proceed for Catalina+ support of our product(s). Once ‘gain appreciate the response! ~prokash

This note was poorly conveyed.

Specifically, kauth_deregister_scope() and kauth_listen_scope() in kauth.h have been marked as deprecated, with a pointer to use EndpointSecurity instead:

extern void kauth_deregister_scope(kauth_scope_t _scope); + __kpi_deprecated("Use EndpointSecurity instead") extern kauth_listener_t kauth_listen_scope(const char *_identifier, kauth_scope_callback_t _callback, void *_idata); + __kpi_deprecated("Use EndpointSecurity instead")

@ Apple folks

Thanks for the recent Beta 7.

The release notes says under the section ENDPOINT SECURITY

KAUTH API has been removed (50419013)

Can someone please explain this ? Does it mean we can not use Kauth support on Catalina ? Or does it mean that it has been removed from ENDPOINT SECURITY systems extension framework ?

Also is there some usable sample code for ENDPOINT SECURITY framework system extension? There is a 3rd party command line implementation floating around in the internet, but that does not have entitlement file.

Thanks much ! prokash
