Version 3.1.25 macOS Mojave 10.14.6 - Unknown error occurred - not detecting any yubikeys #94

Platform: MacOS Mojave 10.14.6 Macbook Pro 2019 (3 USB-C ports)

yubikey-personalization-gui Version 3.1.25 does not detect any of my Yubikeys:

YubiKey 5C Nano directly connected via USB-C (With or without a USB-C hub attached)
Yubikey 5 Nano connected via the USB-C Hub
Yubikey 4 connected via the USB-Hub

Yubikey Manager 1.1.2 on the same system does detect all of my yubikeys.

executing ykinfo -a results in USB error: kIOReturnSuccess

while

executing sudo ykinfo -a works

KeepassXC (any version) no longer detects any of my yubikeys, which is the main problem I need to solve, as I can not access my password database anymore. The issues could be related.

Since the same problem, YubiKeys not being recognized, occurred in the latest yubikey-personalization-gui Version 3.1.25 as well, I am hoping to find some solutions here.

I am pretty sure I could identify the problem!

When I have the keybase application running (keybase.io), then the yubikey is not being recognized by applications unless the application is being run as root.

ykinfo -a will result in an error while sudo ykinfo -a will show the normal output

When I use activity monitor to close all keybase related processes, even without a reboot, the Yubikey App as well as other apps like KeepassXC will recognize the Yubikey again!

Also, ensure this Catalina permission is enabled. The Yubikey personalization software is not updated enough to consider Catalina's new permission model.

This option is not present in macOS Mojave 10.14.6

I am having the same exact problem as soon as I applied the MacOS security patch and updated Mojave 10.14.6.

yubikey-personalization-gui Version 3.1.25 does not detect any of my Yubikeys.

Anyone found a solution to this?

Thanks!
