Notes

  • santad: log pidversion along with pid. (#512 - thanks @avanzini!)
  • santactl/sync: Use deflate as the default Content-Encoding instead of zlib. (#511 - thanks @radsec!)
    • To re-enable zlib set the EnableBackwardsCompatibleContentEncoding config option to true. If syncing with Upvote deployed at commit 0b4477d or below, set this option to true.
  • Santa now ships as a Universal app (arm64, x86_64). Notably santa-driver.kext will continue to only ship as x86_64. We have no plans to support Santa's kext on Apple Silicon Macs.

Important

The v1.x versions of Santa include many architectural changes. Including the usage of EndpointSecurity and SystemExtensions for systems running macOS 10.15+.

Once Santa's SystemExtension is installed, it cannot be removed without prompting the user.

See the notes for the v1.0.3 release regarding SystemExtension and TCC permissions required to run this release on 10.15+.
