Python crash report after MacOS system update

[tstevens]

• Yubico Authenticator version: 5.0.4
• Operating system and version: MacOS 10.15.6
• YubiKey model and version: N/A
• Bug description summary:

After a system update I get a strange crash report at boot reporting that the Yubioath Desktop's python has crashed. I don't have the authenticator configured to start at login. I'm attaching the generated crash report below.

Steps to reproduce

Preform MacOS system update.

Expected result

No crash report at boot.

Actual results

Crash report at boot.

Other info

Hi,
Thanks for letting us know. Does this happen everytime you reboot or just this one time? Can you still use the app?

[tstevens]

Only the first boot after an update from what I've seen. App is still functional and can be used. It is a strange error but figured I'd report it but is really only a minor annoyance.

[spieiga]

I can confirm the same exact issue and behavior with me after updating to macOS 10.5.7. Crash report only popped up after first reboot after the update. Doesn't pop up after subsequent reboots.

[vszakats]

Not sure why it is displayed on startups, but the actual crash can be reproduced anytime by running:

$ '/Applications/Yubico Authenticator.app/Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python'

Tested on Big Sur. Both manual install and Mac App Store install fail the same way.

Looking into the above binary:

$ otool -L '/Applications/Yubico Authenticator.app/Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python'
Python:
	/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation (compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 1677.104.0)
	/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Python (compatibility version 3.9.0, current version 3.9.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1281.100.1)

The problem may be that /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Python (the referenced system-bundled Python) is not present on the disk. The only Python present is under /System/Library/Frameworks/..., but even that one is version 2.x.

The same non-existing Python is referenced from scripts in /Applications/Yubico Authenticator.app/Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/bin/, e.g. ykman.

[edelstone]

This has happened to me after every update for a while now. Only just now realized it is Yubico Authenticator-related after my most-recent update. Would love to see a fix for this; it's sloppy.

Yubico Authenticator: 5.2.4, downloaded from the Mac App Store
Operating system: MacOS 11.5.1
Machine: MacBook Pro 2019 (A2141)
Python version on MacBook: 2.7.16

[fdennis]

@edelstone I agree that this should be fixed. We will look into it for the next release.
@vszakats Thanks for digging!

[igorbernstein]

I think this is the same issue as Yubico/yubikey-manager-qt#261

[manuelbua]

Just updated to 12.3.1 and this is still happening at boot with Yubico Authenticator v5.1.0:

Python is no longer included on mac os 12.3 according to the release notes.
This was already announced with mac os 10.15:

Scripting Language Runtimes
Deprecations
Scripting language runtimes such as Python, Ruby, and Perl are included in macOS for compatibility with legacy software. Future versions of macOS won’t include scripting language runtimes by default, and might require you to install additional packages. If your software depends on scripting languages, it’s recommended that you bundle the runtime within the app. (49764202)
Use of Python 2.7 isn’t recommended as this version is included in macOS for compatibility with legacy software. Future versions of macOS won’t include Python 2.7. Instead, it’s recommended that you run python3 from within Terminal. (51097165)

[dainnilsson]

@gmuth I'm not sure what the relevance of that is here. This project has always bundled the Python 3 runtime with the app on MacOS.

[gmuth]

That bundle references the MacOS Framework which is not there anymore:

Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Python
Referenced from: /Applications/Yubico Authenticator.app/Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/Resources/Python.app/
Contents/MacOS/Python

[dainnilsson]

Yes, the underlying issue here seems to be that the bundled runtime under some circumstances still tries to load files from the system, which is not what it is supposed to be doing. We aim to have this issue resolved in the next (non-patch) version.

[timfallmk]

Can confirm, still an issue with 12.4

[rpardini]

Still happening, updated to 12.4 and got a crash report.

[PressF1]

Just updated to Monterey (15.5) and it's still prevalent. I also see Rosetta mentioned in the error report to Apple. Seems like a miscommunication with Yubico and the way the devs aren't addressing this from prior versions. Hope they can figure it out but at least it's limited to just them.

[wary-hermit]

Still happens after 12.5.1 macOS update.
