This article applies to macOS only.

Overview

Beginning with macOS 10.14.5 (Mojave), software signed with a new Apple developer certificate and all new or updated kernel extensions must be notarized to run. Beginning in macOS 10.15 (Catalina), all software built after June 1, 2019, and code signed with an Apple developer certificate must be notarized. Notarization is not required for software distributed through the Apple App Store because the App Store submission process already includes equivalent security checks.

Notarization is designed by Apple to give users more confidence that Apple developer-signed software has been checked by Apple for malicious components. Notarization is not an App Review. The Apple notary service is an automated system that scans software for malicious content, checks for code-signing issues, and returns the results. If there are no issues, the notary service generates a ticket to staple to the software; the notary service also publishes that ticket online where Gatekeeper can find it.

When the user first installs or runs software, the presence of a ticket (either online or attached to the executable) tells Gatekeeper that Apple notarized the software. Gatekeeper then places descriptive information in the initial launch dialog to help the user make an informed choice about whether to launch the app.

Light bulb  Note: Even if an application has not been notarized, it can still be run by control-clicking on the app, or right clicking for the context menu, and choosing Open - see the Gatekeeper "bypass" dialog in the gallery below.

Code signing an application without also notarizing it is now a totally pointless exercise unless you are only distributing your application via the App Store.

Gatekeeper dialogs

Notarization requirements

Notarization requires the Xcode command line tools from Xcode 10 or later. Building a new app for notarization requires macOS 10.13.6 or later. Stapling an app requires macOS 10.12 or later.

Apple's notary service requires you to:

  • Enable code-signing for all of the executables you distribute.
  • Enable the Hardened Runtime capability for your application and command line targets.
  • Use a “Developer ID” application, kernel extension, or installer certificate for your code-signing signature.
  • Include a secure timestamp with your code-signing signature (include the --timestamp option when running the codesign tool).
  • Don’t include the com.apple.security.get-task-allow entitlement with the value set to any variation of true. If your software hosts third-party plug-ins and needs this entitlement to debug the plug-in in the context of a host executable, see Avoid the Get-Task-Allow Entitlement.
  • Link against the macOS 10.9 or later SDK.

On 3 September 2019 Apple announced that until January 2020 developers could get new versions of applications notarized even though they were not hardened or fully compliant with the normal requirements. That deadline was later extended to 3 February 2020. The above notarization requirements are now in full effect.

Apple Statement 23 December 2019

In June, we announced that all Mac software distributed outside the Mac App Store must be notarized by Apple in order to run by default on macOS Catalina. In September, we temporarily adjusted the notarization prerequisites to make this transition easier and to protect users on macOS Catalina who continue to use older versions of software. Starting February 3, 2020, all submitted software must meet the original notarization prerequisites.

If you haven’t yet done so, upload your software to the notary service and review the developer log for warnings. These warnings will become errors starting February 3 and must be fixed in order to have your software notarized. Software notarized before February 3 will continue to run by default on macOS Catalina.

As a reminder, all installer packages must be signed since they may contain executable code. Disk images do not need to be signed, although signing them can help your users verify their contents.

Notarizing an application

These instructions assume you have completed the other preparatory steps: code signed the application, implemented the hardened runtime capability, code signed the installer pkg (if you have one) etc.

You can't upload the .app bundle directly to the notary service, you need to create a compressed archive containing the application or you can put applications, kernel extensions, and other software in a container, like a disk image, and notarize the container. The notary service accepts disk images (UDIF format), signed flat installer packages, and ZIP archives. It processes nested containers as well, like packages inside a disk image.

Step 1 - Create disk image

Create a disk image by opening a Terminal and running the following command:

hdiutil create -volname MyApp -srcfolder /path/to/MyApp.app -ov -format UDBZ MyApp.dmg

Step 2 - Code sign the disk image

Disk images must be signed with your Developer ID Application Certificate and include a secure timestamp.

Code sign the disk image by opening a Terminal and running the following command:

codesign -s "Developer ID Application: Your Name (Team ID)" --timestamp MyApp.dmg

Note: See Code Signing for macOS for more details relevant to code signing especially if doing this on aarch64 for an x86_64 binary.

Step 3 - Generate an app-specific password

To generate an app-specific password, refer to this Apple Support article. Note: this is a password that will be specific to the notarization application (xcrun altool) and not to the application being notarized. You therefore only need to do this once, but make sure you copy the generated password and save it somewhere.

Note-icon.png

Tip: Save the password to your keychain with:

xcrun altool -u "<your email>" -p "<app-specific pwd>" --store-password-in-keychain-item "<name for pwd>"

and then you can use "@keychain:<name for pwd>" instead of "<app-specific pwd>" in the following commands.

Step 4 - Upload the disk image to the notary service

Light bulb  Note: When you notarize the container disk image, altool also notarizes the application inside, so you can skip the step of notarizing the application itself.


Upload the disk image file to the Apple notary service by opening a Terminal and running the following command:

xcrun altool --notarize-app --primary-bundle-id "<your identifier>" -u "<your email>" -p "<app-specific pwd>" -t osx -f /path/to/MyApp.dmg

The primary-bundle-id helps you keep track of automated correspondence from the notarization service. The value you give doesn’t need to match the bundle identifier of the submitted app or have any particular value. It only needs to make sense to you. The notarization service includes the value whenever it emails you regarding the given altool submission.

If the upload is successful you should receive output similar to the following:

No errors uploading 'MyApp.dmg'.
RequestUUID = 3af4e56f-162b-75bc-827f-7233f92bf20c

Step 5 - Check the notarization process

The notarization process generally takes less than an hour, so you may want to check its progress from time to time by opening a Terminal and running the following command:

xcrun altool --notarization-history 0 -u "<your email>" -p "<app-specific pwd>"

When the notarization process completes successfully the above command will return information similar to the following:

Notarization History - page 0

Date                      RequestUUID                          Status  Status Code Status Message   
------------------------- ------------------------------------ ------- ----------- ---------------- 
2019-12-08 06:24:03 +0000 3af4e56f-162b-75bc-827f-7233f92bf20c success 0           Package Approved 

Next page value: 1575786243000

You should also receive an email from Apple similar to the following for a successful notarization:

Dear <First_Name>,

Your Mac software has been notarized. You can now export this software and distribute it directly to users.

Bundle Identifier: com.example.MyApp.001
Request Identifier: 3af4e56f-162b-75bc-827f-7233f92bf20c

For details on exporting a notarized app, visit Xcode Help or the notarization guide.

Apple Developer Relations

Step 6 - Staple the ticket to the disk image

The notarization process produces a ticket that tells Gatekeeper that your application is notarized. After notarization completes successfully, the next time any user attempts to run your application on macOS 10.14 or later, Gatekeeper will find the ticket online. This includes users who downloaded your application before notarization.

After step 5 receives the "Package Approved" status message, you should also attach the ticket to the disk image file using the stapler tool, so that future distributions include the ticket. This ensures that Gatekeeper can find the ticket even when a network connection is not available.

To staple the ticket to the disk image file, open a Terminal and run the following command:

xcrun stapler staple /path/to/MyApp.dmg

If the command completes successfully, the output should be similar to:

Processing: /Path/to/MyApp.dmg
Processing: /Path/to/MyApp.dmg
The staple and validate action worked!

Note: While you can staple an installer package and disk image directly, if notarization used a zip file, the application bundle needs to be unzipped and then it can be stapled and rezipped.

Step 7 - Verify notarization of the disk image

To verify the notarization of the disk image, open a Terminal and run the following command:

spctl -a -vv -t install MyApp.dmg

A successful verification of the notarization process should produce output similar to the following:

MyApp.dmg: accepted
source=Notarized Developer ID
origin=Developer ID Application: <Developer Name> (<TEAM_ID>)

Step 8 - Verify notarization of the application

To verify the notarization of the application, install the application, open a Terminal and run the following command:

spctl -a -vv /Applications/MyApp.app

A successful verification of the notarization process should produce output similar to the following:

/Applications/MyApp.app: accepted
source=Notarized Developer ID
origin=Developer ID Application: <Developer Name> (<TEAM_ID>)

Important: test the application by putting it in the Applications directory. It's treated differently by the Gatekeeper when in the "installed" location.

Alternatively, the Apple-recommended way to verify the notarization of an application is to open a Terminal and run the following command:

xcrun stapler validate MyApp.app

A successful verification of the notarization process should produce output similar to the following:

Processing: MyApp.app
The validate action worked!

Notarizing a command line tool

Command line tools can be code signed, but they cannot be easily notarized because they do not have an Application Bundle and a standalone Info.plist property list file. You can relatively easily insert an Info.plist file in your command line tool executable.

Inserting an Info.plist in a command line executable

Here is a template that you can customise for your command line utility. I extracted it from a command line utility executable written in C named "simplereach" which I built with Xcode 11.3.1 on Mojave after enabling the "Create Info.plist Section in Binary" under the "Packaging" options (I have omitted the unnecessary Xcode-related build info from it).

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
	<key>BuildMachineOSBuild</key>
	<string>18G8022</string>
	<key>CFBundleDevelopmentRegion</key>
	<string>English</string>
	<key>CFBundleDocumentTypes</key>
	<array>
		<dict>
			<key>CFBundleTypeOSTypes</key>
			<array>
				<string>fold</string>
				<string>disk</string>
				<string>****</string>
			</array>
		</dict>
	</array>
	<key>CFBundleExecutable</key>
	<string>simplereach</string>
	<key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
	<string>com.mycompany.simplereach</string>
	<key>CFBundleInfoDictionaryVersion</key>
	<string>6.0</string>
	<key>CFBundleName</key>
	<string>simplereach</string>
	<key>CFBundlePackageType</key>
	<string>APPL</string>
	<key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
	<string>1.0</string>
	<key>CFBundleSupportedPlatforms</key>
	<array>
		<string>MacOSX</string>
	</array>
	<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
	<string>1</string>
	<key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key>
	<string>10.14</string>
</dict>
</plist>

You will need to modify a few key strings in the above file. Substitute your own:

  • BuildMachineOSBuild string can be obtained from a Terminal with the command sw_vers. The "18G8022" strong is for Mojave 10.14.6.
  • CFBundleDevelopmentRegion string if it is not "English".
  • CFBundleExecutable string with your utility name.
  • CFBundleIdentifier string (conventionally your domain name in reverse followed by utility name; feel free use anything unique).
  • CFBundleName string (use the same value as for CFBundleExecutable).
  • CFBundleShortVersionString string with your version number.
  • LSMinimumSystemVersion string with the minimum macOS version on which your utility will run.

You can then insert the Info.plist file into your application by telling the linker to add it as a __TEXT section named __info_plist:

fpc -k"-sectcreate __TEXT __info_plist Info.plist" my_utility.pas

To check whether it has been successfully inserted you can run the following command in a Terminal:

otool -X -v -s __TEXT __info_plist my_utility

Signing a command line executable

Now that the Info.plist file has been inserted in the executable, you are ready to code sign it by executing the following commands in a Terminal:

cd /path/to/my_utility
mkdir bin
mv my_utility bin/
codesign -f --strict --timestamp --options=runtime -s "Developer ID Application: YOUR NAME (TEAM_ID)" bin/my_utility

It is critical that you create the bin directory and move your utility to it before signing. Failure to do so will result in a _CodeSignature directory being created which is not appropriate for a command line utility and the notarisation process will fail.

To verify this was successful you can run the following command in a Terminal:

codesign -vv bin/my_utility

If code signing was successful, the output should be something similar to:

my_utility: valid on disk
my_utility: satisfies its Designated Requirement 

Submitting a command line executable for notarization

As you cannot notarize a bare executable, you need to incorporate it into a container (.dmg - Disk Image, .pkg - Installer Package, or a ZIP archive file). A ZIP archive is the simplest so in a Terminal execute the following command:

zip my_utility.zip bin/my_utility

You are now ready to upload your command line utility to Apple's servers for notarization. In a terminal execute the following command:

xcrun altool --notarize-app --primary-bundle-id "<your identifier>" -u "<your email>" -p "<app-specific pwd>" -t osx -f my_utility.zip

If you do not already have an app specific password, see above for how to generate one.

The primary-bundle-id helps you keep track of automated correspondence from the notarization service. The value you give doesn’t need to match the bundle identifier of the submitted app or have any particular value. It only needs to make sense to you. The notarization service includes the value whenever it emails you regarding the given altool submission.

If the upload is successful you should receive output similar to the following:

No errors uploading 'my_utility'.
RequestUUID = 3af4e56f-162b-75bc-827f-7233f92bf20c

Checking the notarization progress

The notarization process generally takes from 10 to 15 minutes, so you may want to check its progress from time to time by running the following command from a Terminal:

xcrun altool --notarization-history 0 -u "<your email>" -p "<app-specific pwd>"

When the notarization process completes successfully the above command will return information similar to the following:

Notarization History - page 0
 
Date                      RequestUUID                          Status  Status Code Status Message   
------------------------- ------------------------------------ ------- ----------- ---------------- 
2021-04-22 10:55:03 +0000 3af4e56f-162b-76bc-826f-7263f92bf20c success 0           Package Approved 
 
Next page value: 1575786243000

You should also receive an email from Apple similar to the following for a successful notarization:

Dear <First Name>,
 
Your Mac software has been notarized. You can now export this software and distribute it directly to users.
 
Bundle Identifier: 
Request Identifier: 70dbe301-d3a7-4931-9ec3-61c5cc80573c

In case of a notarization failure, consult Troubleshooting below for help.

Verifying notarization of a command line executable

To verify the notarization of a command line tool, open a Terminal and run the following command:

spctl -a -t open --context context:primary-signature -vv my_utility 

A successful verification of a properly notarized command line executable should produce output similar to the following:

my_utility: accepted
source=Notarized Developer ID
origin=Developer ID Application: Your Name (Z9HBGNDZZ9)

Troubleshooting

Notarization upload process

If the notarisation upload process does not go well, you should be able to find a compressed log file in your temporary directory which may shed some light on what happened. You can view it by opening a Terminal and running the following commands (substitute the name of your log file which includes your application bundle-id):

  cd ${TMPDIR}
  gzcat c51ca05f-cf49-405f-be57-26873faab5f6_3073718126753816760org.sentry.myapp-20191231004646-273.itmsp6022059143057318377.log

which, for a successful notarization upload, should look similar to:

Status Message: Package Invalid

You can then cut and paste the LogFileURL into your web browser and retrieve the notarization process log file which will look something like this:

{
  "logFormatVersion": 1,
  "jobId": "fa2e5d79-cba0-469d-bb27-859a8f081821",
  "status": "Invalid",
  "statusSummary": "Archive contains critical validation errors",
  "statusCode": 4000,
  "archiveFilename": "test.dmg",
  "uploadDate": "2020-02-29T13:54:08Z",
  "sha256": "1b08ea5cdf97eb6fed9b959a549d4b325eb5e90f16538139a29a83f75609d87b",
  "ticketContents": null,
  "issues": [
    {
      "severity": "error",
      "code": null,
      "path": "test.dmg/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MyApp",
      "message": "The executable does not have the hardened runtime enabled.",
      "docUrl": null,
      "architecture": "x86_64"
    }
  ]
}

In the above failure case, it was because the executable had not been hardened.

It is also worthwhile mentioning that it is always worth retrieving the notarization log file to check for warnings which are not yet errors so that you can fix them before they do become errors which prevent successful notarization.

Here is an example of a notarization process log from a successful notarization:

    }
  ],
  "issues": null
}

Notarization check failures

If the notarization process succeeds, but when you check whether your application is properly notarized and it does not pass the notarization check successfully, you can use the Console.app to inspect the log files for information about the rejection (after trying to launch the blocked application). Be aware you should open the Console.app before trying to open your blocked application, otherwise not all messages may be logged. You should choose your device in the left sidebar of the Console.app and check for the process XprotectService in the logs.
