Mountain Lion and AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges warning

Question

I have updated my OSX and xCode now when I call AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges

I getting log message:

dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable (/usr/libexec/security_authtrampoline) is setuid or setgid

what is that, can I fix it?

Answer 1

Sadly, this very handy class https://github.com/sveinbjornt/STPrivilegedTask relies on the AEWP function and I cannot use it on ML... would be super cool to update it for ML!

Answer 2

This problem is since 10.7. But in 10.8 they probably made changes that made this function not working as it should be. Anyway 2 possible solutions are here. I'm solving this problem right now too. I don't know if proposed solution is the only right. I will update you if I found solution.
