Slow boot – possible disk format problemsĪ small number of those upgrading to Mojave are suffering very slow boots following upgrading. Hopefully Apple will provide a better solution in a future update to Mojave. However, if you need to retain ssh access, SentinelOne suggests connecting to that Mac using ssh, entering a protected folder such as ~/Library/Mail in order to add ssh or sshd-keygen-wrapper to the Full Disk Access pane, then toggling that on and off as required to control access to protected areas. The simple solution for the great majority of Macs is to disable Remote Login in the Sharing pane. This may be intentional, but as this feature is often enabled, many Macs may be vulnerable to remote attack on protected data. SentinelOne have reported that the remote shell ssh has, by default, no restrictions on accessing protected files and folders. Privacy protection (TCC) – ssh bypasses privacy protection Jeff Johnson reports that he has discovered a different vulnerability in Mojave’s new privacy protection – separate from that of Patrick Wardle and not based on ssh – which he has reported to Apple. I suspect that this will be addressed in an early security update. I will post further details of this when they are released.

Patrick Wardle has demonstrated that he can exploit a vulnerability in the new TCC system which enables its complete bypass. Privacy protection (TCC) – bypass of privacy protection This article lists bugs which you and I have encountered in macOS Mojave 10.14 itself.

To see the list of bugs in 10.14.6, which is being maintained, please go to this article. With the release of Mojave 10.14.4, this article is no longer being updated.
