It can't work on mac 11.0(big sur)

Open xaqfan opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

The newest mac os system is not distribute officially.But i can get a beta version on developer center. And I have tried to install SoftU2F.pkg, but it does not work. Then, I checked and found that the kext was not loaded.

Is there a way to load kext?

There is no allow button on System Preferences > Security & Privacy panel!

Obviously not. The new API must be used to be compatible with 11.0.x

Guys, the SoftU2F has no compatibility issue with the public released Big Sur. The problem is, when you upgrade from Catalina, the System Integrity Protection (SIP) is auto re-enabled, while SoftU2F relies on SIP turned off. You can get SoftU2F works by turning off the SIP, and re-install SIP with the installer

But it'll be better if it can be done with "normal" install without modifying SIP

Edit: I just reinstalled it with SIP disabled, followed by a reboot to rebuild the cache (new thing on Big Sur) after that reboot, I reboot to re-enable SIP and SoftU2F doesn't work

Have you a trick to avoid SIP disabled (all-time)?
