Privileges 2.5 Public Beta

[mthielemann]

Here is a first preview of the upcoming version 2.5 of Privileges.

The upcoming release of Privileges comes with a powerful system extension, designed to prevent unauthorized modifications, deactivation, or uninstallation of Privileges and its components. This is a major step forward in making Privileges even more secure.

You can enable or disable the system extension either by using the new -e or --extension argument in PrivilegesCLI or by a configuration profile using the new EnableSystemExtension key. Once enabled, it prevents Privileges from being renamed, copied, or deleted. It also prevents the unloading of the Privileges launchd plists with the commands launchctl unload or launchctl bootout.

Please play around with the new features and open an issue if you have any feedback. Thanks and happy testing!
