- The sandbox
PATHnow holds the selected developer directory'susr/binjust ahead of/usr/bin, only when that directory is already a sealed executable root. An entry the session lists earlier keeps its place. - Launch reachability and grant admission resolve a bare shim name to the tool the shim forwards to, so the same file resolves inside and outside the sandbox and the command stays contained instead of falling back to…
- A path the command spells out (
/usr/bin/python3) still runs as spelled. Linux and hosts with no developer directory are unchanged.
- The sandbox
- packageName the distribution a local wheel installs (#6989) Evidence for this change
