i'm seeing this as well on 12.6. the program crashes upon processing a stream log message:
update: i would consider this more of a workaround, but it seems that following the steps as described in EthanArbuckle/unredact-private-os_logs to turn on the Enable-Private-Data
plist value for com.apple.system.logging
avoids this crash.
this has the side effect of unredacting all private logs on your system, so i can't blanket recommend anyone enable this without understanding the potential consequences.
@sjcjonker this may be of interest given you reported this issue yourself.
can someone fix it? developer seems to not care anymore...
Thanks for the bug report(s): ...just pushed out an update to avoid the crash: https://github.com/objective-see/OverSight/releases/tag/v2.0.2
Unfortunately Apple now censors the process id (pid
) of the process that is accessing the mic/webcam, so on 12.6+ OverSight while still able to detect the mic/camera is accessed, won't be able to tell you which program is responsible.
...researching other approaches to restore this functionality! 🤞🏼
Mahalo for your patience 🙏🏽
Just released v2.1.0: https://github.com/objective-see/OverSight/releases/download/v2.1.0/OverSight_2.1.0.zip
It should fully restore functionality for macOS 12+ If you can give it a try and let me know if everything looks good, that'd be great!
Hi all,
I noticed OverSight crashes for me after upgrading from 12.5. to 12.6 last Monday. I can manually restart, but seems to crash on actual camera / microphone usage.
From the IPS file the following is logged:
"exception" : {"codes":"0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000","rawCodes":[0,0],"type":"EXC_CRASH","signal":"SIGABRT"},
Please let me know what info can best be provided to troubleshoot, if believed to be a common issue. (If believed to be a single user, happy to be told, will do deep dive on my own system again).
