Entropy generation using Apple corecrypto non-physical entropy source
Hi, We are using the following API from sys/random.h to generate entropy in our module. int getentropy(void* buffer, size_t size); Could you confirm if this API internally uses a non-physical entropy source and adhere to SP800-90B as the following document says: https://csrc.nist.gov/CSRC/media/projects/cryptographic-module-validation-program/documents/entropy/E181_PublicUse.pdf

Network System Extension upgrade issue
We are trying to update the network system extension on macOS12.4. But sysextd is crashing and failing to update the system extension. I am sharing the sysextd logs and crash report here: sysextd console logs: sysextd_logs.txt sysextd crash report: sysextd_crash.txt I am still working to figure out what is happening right now. Can somebody help me in resolving this issue?
