(2) Common Criteria Auditing is narrowly defined by use model; as long as you don't use it outside the model, it remains valid. For system components shipped by a vendor, existing behaviour is technically allowed. Outside that, well, choose to use code paths involving execve() rather than posix_spawn(). This doesn't make sense to me. The BSM Auditing is positioned as a security capability and is required for certain certifications (like various Common Criteria levels); it shouldn't be trivial to bypass the security by simply using a different API. Do not expect a "hot fix" for already released code, and do not any fix whatsoever unless you file a bug report through the proper channels, rather than posting on a mailing list. Agree. I like to use the mailing list to get pointers for where to look (e.g., pointing me to launchd for starting applications via the dock) and then getting confirmation on how I think things are working. This makes it easier for me to file a more specific (and hopefully useful) bug report. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
