👋 Hello we've been getting some reports about osquery prompting for permissions to find devices on local networks on macos 15.0, is this expected?
The macadmins extension seems to have docuemented it worked around it for their extension but it's happening with the native
system_info
table
Copy code
This table is an alternative to the built-in system_info table in osquery, which triggers an Allow "osquery" to find devices on local networks? prompt on macOS 15.0. On versions other than 15.0, this table falls back to the built-in system_info table. Note: this table returns an empty cpu_subtype field. See #58 for more details.

This is a bug on apple’s end that is allegedly going to be fixed in 15.1 ( @Kory Prince keep me honest here - it’s not fully fixed yet, right?)

Apple told us this is fixed in macOS 15.1 Beta 5 (Build: 24B5055e). I haven't tested it, as testing this issues is very time consuming (only way to reset the alert is to reset the device).
I can confirm the alternative osquery-extension table I added works around the issue in our case. i.e. we're not getting these pop-ups on 15 because we're using this table instead of
system_info
.

Just make sure you have the extension and have updated all the packs before you upgrade the device to 15

that's reassuring to hear, is there a tracking issue or ticket I can follow along with for this? if not I'd be happy to open one in the osquery repo referencing this thread

Our AppleCare Enterprise case is 102373793284, and our feedback is FB14812974. If you have AppleCare you can probably give them those numbers and have them add you to the internal case.
