As part of setting up self-signed SSL on a local server I'd like to automate the steps to add a cert to the default keychain and set OS X's Keychain to "Always Trust" instead of "Use system defaults".
I've got the cert creation down and addition to the Keychain just fine but I can't seem to find the right flags to tell OS X to always trust the cert. Here's what I'm using:
def trust(cert)
default_keychain = `security default-keychain`.chomp.strip.gsub '"', ''
system "security -l add-trusted-cert -r trustRoot -p ssl -k #{default_keychain} #{cert_location}"
end
Since I'm not using the -d flag it's probably unnecessary to do the work in default_keychain but that's not the source of the issue.
Any ideas?
Turns out that it was the wrong argument for the -r flag. trustRoot is used for root certificates, which is not the type of cert I'm supplying. Using trustAsRoot works as expected, always trusting the cert. This escalates security to needing the user password but I can live with that.

I'm trying to add a VPN certificate for Azure, but when I open the cert to add to the login keychain, it does not actually add it. Dragging and dropping does nothing as well, nor can I add it via the command line via:
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -k ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain VpnServerRoot.crt
There are also no errors generated, or output of any kind when trying to add it. I've heard this may be a bug with OS X, but haven't seen a solution anywhere.
Ah I see your problem. You have just the .cert file. which requires a private/public key in order to add it to the keychain.
Get that and try to add it.

I tried to code sign an iOS application,
These are the steps that i followed
security create-keychain -p password ${KEYCHAIN}
security set-keychain-settings -u -t 300 ${KEYCHAIN}
security list-keychains -d user -s login.keychain ${KEYCHAIN}
security import "$1" -k ${KEYCHAIN} -A -P "${PASSPHRASE}" -A >/dev/null
security unlock-keychain -p password ${KEYCHAIN}
/usr/bin/codesign -f -s $IDENTITY --keychain $KEYCHAIN --entitlements $ENTITLEMENTS Payload/Test.app
This returned me Codesign returned unknown error -1=ffffffffffffffff via ssh.
If i directly execute the code sign command in the machine, it's successfully signing.
The issue is only in Mac OS Sierra.
Had the same problem a while ago, adding
security set-key-partition-list -S apple-tool:,apple:,codesign: -s -k password ${KEYCHAIN}
solved it for me.
Got the same issue but while archiving directly from Xcode.
Sharing the solution in case it helps.
Sometimes, Keychain seems to end up in a corrupted state. Using MacOS Sierra too.
Symptoms :
Relogin needed to access Accounts after restarting Xcode
Prompting for password while using Keychain Access for some operations
Keychain Access - Error while accessing login keychain via Change Settings for Keychain ...
What fixes it for me is locking and unlocking (password required) the involved Keychain, login in my case.
I am going to chip in as well as I had to try a few more things than the ones mentioned here: the problem was that keychain doesn't like SSH sessions. I had to execute these in my session to fix it:
security unlock-keychain -p MY_PASS ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
security set-key-partition-list -S apple-tool:,apple:,codesign: -s -k MY_PASS ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
security set-keychain-settings ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
I've also removed my current certificates system/account certificates by removing my account from XCode (I use fastlane to do building) but I suspect that this shouldn't have impacted it.
#madhu I have been trying to fix the same issue and found that Access Control for the key associated with the certificate in question was set to "Confirm before allowing access" which didn't work in Jenkins. I modified it (thru Keychain Access gui - Get Info, Access Control) to "Allow all applications to access this item" and my build was successful.
You might have exported some file like p12 from KeyChain, and when OS asked for your root password, and you denied it, then Xcode will code sign error with this info.
If this maybe so, you should repeat the above action, input your password and click allow, and then it will be ok to code sign.
This happens in a headless build because the prompt for key access cannot be shown or responded to. The solution is to prevent that prompt from showing by granting access to the key in advance.
Open Keychain Access, find the key for your signing certificate (login-> Certificates, then expand the certificate to reveal its key). Right-click on the key and select: Get Info -> Access Control, and select "Allow all applications to access this item".
I've tried almost all the existing suggestions over the web, none of them helped...
Finally only re-generating the Provisioning Profile (for AdHoc), re-downloading it and placing it to ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/ overwriting the existing one saved my life.
By the way, AppStore build was successful all this time, so the issue was definitely in the AdHoc profile itself (pretty strange, since it looked nice by all means).
Even though we installed the right certs in the keychain and the right Provisioning Profile under ~/Library/MobileDevices/Provisioning Profiles.
We may also see
unknown error -1=ffffffffffffffff
For this error, I tried the below steps to fixed the issue:
Reboot the machine, unlock keychain using "securify unlock-keychain", lock the keychain again
Remove ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData folder.
Run carthage bootstrap --platform iOS
Open the source code syncing down workspace, run "xattr -rc ." then open the .xcodeproject file in xcode.
Turned on the automatic signing for each target. Need to login with valid credentials.
Click on the provisioning profile under signing.
unlock the keychain again
Changing the build device to Generic Devices, under Product --> Clean, then Product –> Archive
There will be a keychain access allow showed up, click "Always Allow".
You should make sure the archive is successful then trigger the Jenkins job again.
I'm building an application that will connect to the user's web browser through a secure web socket (SSL). I'm using Websocketd to connect to the web socket, but that shouldn't matter.
Short version:
I really just need help using the add-trusted-cert command... and Apple's man pages really don't help at all if you haven't used this before. How can I add a certificate to the System Keychain and only set the SSL and Basic option to "Aways Trust"?
Long version:
I am generating self-signed certificates and passing them into Websocketd in order to connect to the web socket over SSL. No further steps are required for Firefox and Chrome... they just work with this. Safari however, doesn't trust my self-signed certificates, and I have to go into Keychain Access and add my certificate and change the Trust settings to "Use Custom Settings" with ONLY the SSL option and the X.509 Basic Policy option set to "Always Trust"... any other settings and Safari complains. I don't want my users to have to fiddle with certificates, so my solution was to add my certificate to the System Keychain using a post-install script. Like so:
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -k "/Library/Keychains/System.Keychain" "./certificate.cert"
This successfully adds the certificate to the user's System Keychain... but it sets all of the options to "Always Trust"... for some reason Safari doesn't like this and complains. Only when the SSL and X.509 Basic Policy options are set to Always Trust and the rest set to "No Value Specified" does Safari behave.
Okay so I checked out the man pages for the "security add-trusted-cert" and sure enough there is an option that you can pass in to only set certain options to "Always Trust"... so I came up with this:
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -p ssl -k "/Library/Keychains/System.Keychain" "./certificate.cert"
The result of the -p ssl option is that now my certificate gets added to the System Keychain with only the SSL option set to Always Trust... but the basic option isn't! If I replace ssl with basic I can set the basic option to Always Trust:
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -p basic -k "/Library/Keychains/System.Keychain" "./certificate.cert"
But this still doesn't solve my issue! I need BOTH set to Always Trust, and the other options left at "No Specified Value"... so I tried this:
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -p ssl & basic -k "/Library/Keychains/System.Keychain" "./certificate.cert"
But this doesn't work. I swear I've read all of Google on this subject and I can't find a single example of how to construct this command so that it accomplishes what I am describing. This link confirmed what I need to do but didn't actually provide an example command, and this link is searching the same answer I am... but nobody has replied with a suitable answer yet, and the accepted answer on this stackoverflow question is correct... but they just tell you what you need to do (I already know that), and don't tell you how to actually do it.
So again, how can I add a certificate to the System Keychain and only set the SSL and Basic option to "Aways Trust"?
Thank you!
After another frustrating session of trying to guess the correct command I finally stumbled on the answer, I'll share it here in case anyone needs it:
sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -p ssl -p basic -s "localhost" -k "/Library/Keychains/System.Keychain" "./certificate.cert"
Note the solution is to simply add another -p flag followed by another constraint. In addition, it is probably wise to specify the policy string using the -s flag... in my case that's just the localhost.
I hope this proves useful! I was dumbfounded that such a routine task has virtually no documentation and no answers on stackoverflow.
Our automated build is running on Jenkins. The build itself is running on slaves, with the slaves being executed via SSH.
I get an error:
00:03:25.113 [codesign-app] build/App.app: User interaction is not allowed.
I have tried every suggestion I have seen so far in other posts here:
Using security unlock-keychain immediately before signing to unlock the keychain.
Moving the signing key out into its own keychain.
Moving the signing key into the login keychain.
Moving the signing key into the system keychain.
Manually setting list-keychains to only the keychain which contains the key.
In all cases, I get the same error.
In an attempt to diagnose the issue, I tried running the "security unlock-keychain" command on my local terminal and found that it doesn't actually unlock the keychain - if I look in Keychain Access, the lock symbol is still there. This is the case whether I pass the password on the command-line or whether I let it prompt me for it. Unlocking the same keychain using the GUI will prompt me for the password and then unlock it. Additionally, if I run "security lock-keychain", I do see the key lock immediately after running the command. This makes me think that unlock-keychain doesn't actually work. I experience the same behaviour on Lion (which we're using for the build slaves) and Mavericks (which I'm developing on.)
Next, I tried adding -v to all the security commands:
list-keychains "-d" "system" "-s" "/Users/tester/.secret/App.keychain"
Listing keychains to see if it was added: ((
"/Library/Keychains/System.keychain"
))
unlock-keychain "-p" "**PASSWORD**" "/Users/tester/.secret/App.keychain"
build/App.app: User interaction is not allowed.
From this, it would seem that list-keychains is what isn't working. Maybe neither work. :/
There is a similar question here. The solution is interesting - set "SessionCreate" to true in launchctl. But I'm not building on the master - my build process is started from SSH on a slave build machine. Maybe there is a command-line way to do what launchctl is doing when you run "SessionCreate"?
I too have been fighting this. Nothing helped until I tried the suggestion on http://devnet.jetbrains.com/thread/311971. Thanks ashish agrawal!
Login your build user via the GUI and open Keychain Access. Select your signing private key, right-click, choose Get Info, change to the Access Control tab and select the "Allow all applications to access this item".
Well, I guess I get to answer my own question today, because after stabbing at it over two and a half days, one of the things I tried seems to have worked. I'm just going to back away from it now and hope it keeps working.
Essentially, it looks like it comes down to -d system not actually working. So a lot of answers to other questions around here should probably be updated to reflect that.
security -v list-keychains -s "$KEYCHAIN" "$HOME/Library/Keychains/login.keychain"
security list-keychains # so we can verify that it was added if it fails again
security -v unlock-keychain -p "$KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD" "$KEYCHAIN"

Using Security to create a Keychain for /usr/bin/codesign
Importing the certificate and having it work with codesign programmatically isn't a matter of using login or System keychains or praying to some god of codesign. You just need to have the correct permissions set. I recommend creating a new keychain specifically for codesign purposes.
These days to get codesign to not yield an errSecInternalComponent you need to get the partition list (ACLs) correct. I'll walk through the steps:
Create the Keychain
security create-keychain -p "${KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD}" "${KEYCHAIN_NAME}"
at this point the keychain is unlocked but won't appear in Keychain Access.
Add the new Keychain to the search list
security list-keychains -s "${KEYCHAIN_NAME}" "${OLD_KEYCHAIN_NAMES[#]}"
Add the new Keychain to the list. If you don't first grab out the original list from list-keychains you'll no longer have login.keychain in your search-list.
Unlock the keychain
security unlock-keychain -p "${KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD}" "${KEYCHAIN_NAME}"
This is redundant if you created the Keychain above, but if the Keychain already existed it is necessary.
Remove the defaults from the Keychain
security set-keychain-settings "${TESTING_KEYCHAIN}"
By not specifying any arguments this will set the auto-lock timeout to unlimited and remove auto-lock on sleep.
Import your signing certs from a .p12
security import "${DIST_CER}" -P "${CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD}" -k "${KEYCHAIN_NAME}" -T /usr/bin/codesign
Import the certs and gives codesign access through the -T option.
Set the ACL on the keychain
security set-key-partition-list -S apple-tool:,apple: -s -k "${KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD}" "${KEYCHAIN_NAME}"
This is a requirement that many people miss. You can see what macOS does by using dump-keychain. Which in the case of codesigning requires apple: and apple-tool:. -s refers to signing certificates.
Where's my signing certificate?
Always a good idea to make sure you can find your certificates
security find-identity -p codesigning -v /path/to/keychain
Gitlab-Runner, Jenkins and the like
One very important thing for any CI-type runner or build system is to make sure the process is started from launchd correctly. Make sure your plist contains <SessionCreate> </true>.
Not correctly matching the the owner of the keychain with the build process and making sure a security session is created will result is all sorts of headaches. Diagnostically speaking you can introduce list-keychains and see if the output matches your expectations.
This is from the launchd.plist man-page:
SessionCreate <boolean>
This key specifies that the job should be spawned into a new security
audit session rather than the default session for the context is belongs
to. See auditon(2) for details.
UserName <string>
This optional key specifies the user to run the job as. This key is only
applicable for services that are loaded into the privileged system
domain.
GroupName <string>
This optional key specifies the group to run the job as. This key is only
applicable for services that are loaded into the privileged system
domain. If UserName is set and GroupName is not, then the group will be
set to the primary group of the user.

Finally codesign
You can lookup the signing certificates hash using find-identity
security find-identity -p codesigning -v
Before beginning signing Xcode sets the environment variable CODESIGN_ALLOCATE to use the codesign_allocate that comes with Xcode, not in /usr/bin.
export CODESIGN_ALLOCATE="$( xcrun --find codesign_allocate )"
Codesign a framework, dylib, etc.
If you're codesigning manually, start with the frameworks and dylibs and after they are all signed, then sign the .app. Or in other words - you codesign from the bottom up.
/usr/bin/codesign --verbose=4 -f -s "$SIGNER_HASH" "$SIGNABLE"
Codesign the app bundle
After all the other signables are signed, sign the .app itself. In theory, you could do this all in one go with --deep, however, you would still need to make sure your app has entitlements and possibly other flags.
/usr/bin/codesign --verbose=4 -f -s "$SIGNER_HASH" "$SIGNABLE"
Flag passed to all items:
--timestamp=none disable timestamps
Other flags to the app signing step:
--entitlements /path/to/entitlements.xcent new entitlements
--preserve-metadata=entitlements keep current entitlements
New codesign requirement - DER encoded entitlements
Apple has recently started requiring entitlements to not be embedded only in plist form, but also in DER encoded form. If you are using an older Mac/Xcode you might encounter the error...
The code signature version is no longer supported
None of the other answers worked for me.
What eventually saved me was this post
To sum it up, this can be caused by a default timeout of 5 minutes, that will trigger this error after a long build.
To fix:
security set-keychain-settings -t 3600 -l ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
Try to call security unlock-keychain and codesign as an one-line command. This helped me. Something like:
security unlock-keychain -p <password> /Users/<user>/Library/Keychains/login.keychain && codesign --force --verify --verbose --sign "<certificate id>" <app name>
Put your keys in the System keychain
So this is the command that works. -A is to prevent Mac from asking password. Importing to system.keychain doesn't require an GUI.
sudo security import <cert.p12> -k "/Library/Keychains/System.keychain" -P <passphrase> -A
My keychain was locked. It resisted my advances to change that fact...
Keychain Access -> Keychain First Aid -> Repair, et voilá!
Unlocking the keychain is not enough. You also have to set the private key access to "Allow all apps to access this item". And to do that from command line requires reimporting the key. So to take things at a time:
Unlock the login keychain if it is locked. It shouldn't be locked though, but anyway here's how you do that:
security -v unlock-keychain -p "$KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD" "~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain"
If for some reason your build machine has the login keychain locked, and you don't want to expose that password in a script, then you should use a different keychain. You can create one on the spot and use that in the previous and the following command. To create one on the spot:
security create-keychain -p 'temporaryPassword' MyKeychain.keychain
security list-keychains -d user -s login.keychain MyKeychain.keychain
Then import your certificates and associated private keys into the login keychain using the -A parameter. Note that you don't need to sudo for all this...
security import <cert.p12> -k "~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain" -P <passphrase> -A
The -A parameter is what will make your private key to be set to "Allow all apps to access this item"
So using all these you should be able to make a script that installs the required certificate to build a release ipa and sign it without prompt. You can store the .p12 file in your repo, so any machine can build your ipa without requiring manual setup.
Apart from unlocking keychain (as mentioned in another answers), you need to allow access from all applications to Xcode authentication token in keychain:
Select "login" keychain
Select "All Items" category
Search for "xcode" keyword
Select "Allow all applications to access this item" for all Xcode tokens
Don't forget to add unlock keychain step (from previous answers)
Import your keys to System keychain. You can use this command:
sudo security import YourKey.p12 -k /Library/Keychains/System.keychain -P PasswordToYourKey -T /usr/bin/codesign
So I tried every answer here and something wasn't quite adding up. Finally I figured out when I rebooted my CI service, it was running under a different user than I had expected. Changing to the user that actually had access to the key in their login chain fixed everything. This may not be a common problem, but wanted to document my specific reason for this error, in case it happens to others.
For me nothing worked seems have to reinstall Xcode all over again. Jenkins keeps giving the same error.
You would save lot of time if you just move Xcode installation to Trash and reinstall. Ensure you run the codesign command from command line atleast once.
Even after if you get the same error try setting 'Unlock Keychain?' property within Jenkins and give path to your login.keychain under /Users/${USER}/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
I hope god be with you after that.
In my case, this was caused by a keychain being created with a default timeout of 300s and a long xcode compile lasting more than 300s. The workaround, for me, was to invoke:
security set-keychain-settings -t <longer timeout in seconds> <keychain>
immediately after creating the temporary keychain.
I ran through all these suggestions and was still having problems using fastlane's gym in a Jenkins job. I had the certificate installed and keychain unlocked, and was able to codesign on the slave when I manually ran the codesign command on the command line.
As a workaround, if Jenkins connects to the slave using JNLP instead of SSH, you'll be able to codesign.
For me it happens when there is a second keychain added manually and it's locked. For some reason codesign tries to access the locked keychain and fails even though the certificates are in the login keychain (and is unlocked). Unlocking the second one solves the problem. Just doesn't make sense to me.
After trying a number of the above solutions. I realized that one factor I had, was that I was starting the build using the ION Console. When I switched back to making the build from the Terminal app, everything worked just fine.
I have a Bamboo plan which builds a package, and I want to sign that package with my developer certificate. In my build script, I have this:
productsign --sign "Name of my certificate" "input.pkg" "output.pkg"
Running this script from the command line works as expected. However, running the script from Bamboo, I always get the error:
productsign: error: Could not find appropriate signing identity for "Name of my certificate"
I presume this must be because of the context that the build script is run in when run from Bamboo. How do I make the certificate usable in Bamboo? It is installed in System, not login.
If you need to run Bamboo as root, then you'll need to copy the appropriate certificates from your login keychain to your System keychain using Keychain Access (Applications > Utilities).
Having said that, it would probably be better to run Bamboo as a user instead of root. E.g. if you need to use mobile provisioning profiles to sign any iOS builds on the same server, being root will not work.
Have you tried sudo'ing the operation?
I.e.:
sudo productsign --sign "Name of my certificate" "input.pkg" "output.pkg"
As the key is in the System keychain (which maybe it shouldn't be for your use case?), you likely don't have access to it as a 'regular' user, even though [by design] you have access to the certificates in it.
My recommendation is to store the keys you need in a separate keychain. That will make it much easier to find them and manage them. Just create a new keychain and move your cert into it; store it somewhere convenient. Then I sign things this way (I'm using codesign, but --productsign is the same). I do not build as root, nor do I use sudo for this.
# Keychain that holds all the required signing certificates
# To create a keychain like this, create it in "Keychain Access" and copy all your certificates into it
# Then set its timeout to infinite (so it doesn't re-lock itself during the build):
# security set-keychain-settings <path>
# Passing no "-t" option means "no timeout."
# Generally you should just be able to copy this file from build host to build host as needed. Then
# add it to the available keychains using Keychain Access, File>Add Keychain…. If you don't add it to
# Keychain Access, you'll receive signing error CSSMERR_TP_NOT_TRUSTED, since it won't recognize the
# entire chain
