They create the subdirectory and then dutifully set its permissions to read-only to match the source. Show a crash report from when it complains that Sparkle.framework is missing. If you have have a tutorial you want to submit, please create a pull request on GitHub , or send us an email. — Sparkle Tutorial: Lesson 2 - Page & Site Setup P1 - YouTube Thanks! If it's mandatory, the bug (missing framework) is easier to detect :). You originally said that "[t]he file works fine if it's downloaded from the website directly". I've also created #345 to explore what can be done when Sparkle fails to load. By clicking “Sign up for GitHub”, you agree to our terms of service and They create the subdirectory and then dutifully set its permissions to read-only to match the source. Just had this exact thing happen. You can always update your selection by clicking Cookie Preferences at the bottom of the page. Learn more, We use analytics cookies to understand how you use our websites so we can make them better, e.g. There's probably a crash report. The second zip is usually the correct size. Updating the apps Sparkle framework to 1.13.1. Modern. — Elliot Jordan (@homebysix) January 30, 2016. The tutorials here are written by Spark users and reposted with their permission. So this will need one more update for them to make the change. They then try to copy in the contents but fail because it's read-only. Also, are any of the folders within your app bundle marked as read-only (lacking the write permission)? If your users are not admins then they risk is reduced, but they may still be caught by this vulnerability with anything malicious being limited to their account unless the exploit then manages somehow to escalate privileges further. With updates disabled client side, we can pull the updates via AutoPKG to deploy to our Macs. A few folks in the #autopkg channel on macadmins.org Slack have been scraping the SUFeedURL’s from within AutoPKG recipes & other sources & then reaching out to the developers. There have been a few command line methods to detect is an application is potentially vulnerable, such as: Quick scan of your Mac’s Sparkle feed URLs: find /Applications -name Sparkle.framework -exec defaults read {}/../../Info.plist SUFeedURL ; — Jonathan Zdziarski (@JZdziarski) January 30, 2016. Even if not currently managing updating applications via AutoPKG, i’d advise you add the recipes for those applications found in the script at then end of this post, so you can push out the patched versions of the applications once released. Quick update: I'm unable to reproduce the Finder Zip bug in 10.9.2. Sometimes it complains that Sparkle.framework is missing and sometimes it gives a more general exception fully captured here: I've been able to verify that the bug isn't being caused by either my fusion drive, or apps such as Dropbox (which do code injections into the Finder). Re-downloading (and I suspect trying to open the app a second time) allow the app to open. As a backup I move or copy the zip to the Desktop, double-click to unzip the app, and then use Xcode's FileMerge to diff the resulting app against the original. It's coming from dyld, the dynamic loader. codesign --verbose --force --sign "$IDENTITY" "$LOCATION/Sparkle.framework/Versions/A". FWIW, we switched from ZIP to TGZ files for our Sparkle updates. I haven't tried filing Radar yet (mainly because I can't reproduce the problem with any certainty and Radar always seems like a black hole anyway). You originally said that "[t]he file works fine if it's downloaded from the website directly". I ran in to the bug once personally and it was with Archive Utility on a VM close to a standard system install but as you say it's hard to reproduce, so most of my information comes from app users. Within the  tags there is a http link. Enter your email address to subscribe to this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email. The below is taken from another application. ), I'll double check for sloppy string assignment…. It delivers updates using appcasting, a term used to refer to the practice of using RSS … This is is intended to be used as an Extension Attribute, but could be used in other ways, & will return a list of all vulnerable apps on the Macs it’s run on. In light of recent vuln (https://t.co/p9VTYNBdmz), will you switch to using HTTPS for your app's SUFeedURL? However, I'm beginning to suspect this isn't a bug with Sparkle, but rather with OS X. BTW, I opened a Radar with Apple about this bug. The problem of the missing Sparkle framework doesn't just happen at unzip time -- I can get it to happen when zipping the app. Already on GitHub? #wrap_githubgist0044715a5ede8073287533f34cafe790 .gist-data {max-height: 100%;}. Create a basic Spark application with filters, controllers, authentication, localization, etc. Also, if you maintain any AutoPKG recipes, you may need to change the URLs to https once the developer has made the change themselves. Have you symbolicated the MacMiner + 77199 frame? We've seen problems with third-party tools failing on valid archives, leaving files missing or truncated. Thanks to the number of Mac Admins whom tweeted or posted about this on the macadmins.org Slack. Sparkle can update apps that live in any location on your Macs. However, the developer would need to push out an update with the https SUFeedURL in the applications info.plist for the application to see the change as well as https whatever site they host the update XML on. Sparkle is an easy-to-use software update framework for macOS applications. the auto update is one of the most important features to get right, so that you can fix (other) issues. Below is a cut down example of AutoCasperNBI’s AppCast.xml: So the below is some more detail, methods of mitigation & detection. The first zip is the one that's sometimes too small. You should look at whatever line that is. @danielchasehooper nothing has changed in that area recently. Sparkle requires no code in your app, and only needs static files on a web server. Learn more. Typically to check the archive I do two things: I've occasionally used zipinfo in the Terminal, but that's a bit of a pain:-). Heck this little blog is https because of Sparkle & it’s update framework being used in AutoCasperNBI & AutoImagrNBI, with their respective SUFeedURL pointing here. I've observed this is on my 10.9 dev Mac running Xcode 5.0.2. I've seen problems where the various folder copying APIs fail in that case. @pornel Fixed my own problem: the framework was in the copy bundle resources phase rather than a custom "frameworks" copy files phase. Sparkle is a very nice and popular framework for self-updating applications on Mac OS X. But using it in ZetaWatch turned out to be slightly problematic. Mac OS X is increasingly cautious with allowing code to run. Sounds like two separate issues. If it's below a certain threshold then I. #wrap_githubgist0044715a5ede8073287533f34cafe790 .gist-data {max-height: 100%;}. Learn more, Updated app won't run because Sparkle.framework is missing. The problem of the missing Sparkle framework doesn't just happen at unzip time -- I can get it to happen when zipping the app. https://alpha.spacemonkey.com/shares/pAfWOOKmk90YfwGG3zA2YA/macminer_crashreport.txt, https://github.com/potionfactory/LetsMove/. We use optional third-party analytics cookies to understand how you use GitHub.com so we can build better products. If I use right-click in Finder, then I'll typically compress the original app at least twice. Write functional tests for Spark using cucumber. We recommend starting with either the Maven setup or Gradle setup tutorial, then going through the Basic webapp structure tutorial. I've observed this is on my 10.9 dev Mac running Xcode 5.0.2. Sparkle as optional is a double edge, right? However, these can be be quite wasteful (as pointed out by @Allister on macadmins.org Slack) & whilst they would get any applications with an SUFeedURL that is http://, I didn’t see many command line methods that would also check the version of the Sparkle framework included within the application to check to see if that had been updated & therefore patched the vulnerability. If you find a link like the above, please contact the developer. Nothing is marked as read-only and I’ve been building the app in a very similar manner for half a year. Sadly, it’s not that easy to detect without downloading an applications AppCast.xml & then verifying that the release notes are not within the AppCast.xml & are instead linked to a http source. Learn how your comment data is processed. (Thanks to Allister for pointing this out). @psulak: When checking the archive, are you using the built-in Archive Utility to uncompress the archive or do you have a third-party unarchiving tool? Could it be that the copy operation is still in progress when the app is being launched? Post was not sent - check your email addresses! Set up a Spark application using Gradle 2.5 in Eclipse Luna. How do I remove Sparkle? A vulnerability within which was recently disclosed, with an update to Sparkle issued soon after. The 'bad one' is 1,124,057 bytes, while doing the exact same command again in the Finder results in a zip that is 1,299,372 bytes, so like 150k bigger. Successfully merging a pull request may close this issue. Show that. Any idea which version introduced this so that I can get the version before it? Move their apps Software Update Feed URL (SUFeedURL) from http:// to https://. The tutorials here are written by Spark users and reposted with their permission. @tomandersen, I don't think time is a factor with the Finder Zip bug (as I now call it). With the above issue of checking both the applications info.plist for the SUFeedURL & the applications bundled Sparkle frameworks version, I came up with the below script. privacy statement. Open Source. Sparkle framework for apps was apparently installed on my Macbook Pro after trying to run SMC Fan Control. The problem of the app missing files after Sparkle downloads and decompresses the update has been reduced significantly. Example approach for Unit testing in Spark. Create a Spark instance with an embedded Jetty server containing a log4j request logger. This is the build script I'm using with it: Sometimes the Sparkle framework is missing after PFMoveApplication has done its work. I'm trying to get into the habit of using ditto in the Terminal to compress the app, but usually I'm too lazy to fire up the Terminal. If running via as an Extension attribute, you should get a list of applications with their paths that are vulnerable, as well as their bundle ID’s for generating profiles to block their updates via Extinguish. Have a question about this project? Is that downloaded from the same URL that your feed specifies? Often these can be turned off & I’d advise they are for apps used across your Macs. they're used to log you in. GitHub is home to over 50 million developers working together to host and review code, manage projects, and build software together.
