Hi,

 

We have published an updated version of the standalone XFENCE beta, version 1.8.90, which should fix reported kernel panics on macOS Mojave by disabling NVRAM protections, as we could not find a way to monitor NVRAM changes reliably.

 

The new version is available for download from the XFENCE beta project on https://beta.f-secure.com and existing users should get an update notification today.

 

Remember to _disable XFENCE_ before installing the new version. After the upgrade has finished, you need to reboot to take the new version into use.

    Thanks a lot for this update. Can you please elaborate on what the security implications are of “disabling nvram protections” on macOS?

     

    thanks!
