1 Password CLI cannot be verified on Mac OS Catalina

tommeier

Hi,

Since upgrading to Catalina - 1Password CLI was working - however yesterday around midday this has stopped working on all devices. Version 0.6.2 of 1 password CLI.

Any command line usage of "op" results in alert of:

“op” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.

macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware

Homebrew Cask downloaded this file on 1 October 2019 from support.1password.com.

Thanks,

Tom

Use at own risk Catalina workaround: sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /usr/local/bin/op

@tommeier Interesting that it was working for a while... what would happen if you delete and re-download the binary from homebrew or our own download page?

Installing via Brew does not resolve the issue.

This is the error message.
“op” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.
macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware.
Homebrew Cask downloaded this file today at 9:46 AM from support.1password.com.

To get around it, I went into System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General Tab - and there was a the above warning, and I was able to allow it from there. I had to allow it a couple times before it stuck.

Yes, this is a feature of macOS Catalina, and we are working internally to see what exactly needs to be done to allow op to run warning-free on Catalina.

@cohix - yes same thing with reinstall or from download of binary - I believe its due to it not being notarised: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=09032019a

@tommeier that's correct, we are working on getting this ready for the next release. For the time being you can allow the op binary to run in system preferences.
