Problem: MacForgeHelper crashes SecurityAgent.

Closed this issue 5 years ago · 10 comments

In loading MacForgeHelper, it crashes SecurityAgent. And the window of input youser name and pass freeze on the top level. Another windows have gone behind.

So, please fix this problem.

You'd need to go into more detail. What is SecurityAgent?

Also this sounds like maybe a specific plugin issue?

Answer 2 · 2019-08-31T04:30:48.000Z

this is a path of SecurityAgent.
/System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/Versions/A/MachServices/SecurityAgent.bundle
Apple's system protecting function.
Inputting user name and password, it is loaded by MacOS.

Okay interesting.

macOS version?
Do you have any plugins loaded?
Do you have System Integrity Protection on or off?

Sorry!, I forgot them.

my MacOS is 10.12.6 (16G2128), and using Afloat.
Of course, I had turned off SIP, but MacForge tells SIP still on (i don't know why).

If you turn off afloat does this issue still occur?

Turning off afloat, this didn't occur.

Answer 9 · 2019-08-31T05:38:55.000Z

So, just afloat's a problem is this, isn't it?

Answer 10 · 2019-08-31T05:57:42.000Z

That would be my guess. In order to stop it from loading into SecurityAgent there would probably need to be changes to made to Afloat to look for classes specific to that and avoid touching those windows.
