5/6/2023 0 Comments Viscosity for mac 10.8.5![]() ![]() The fault lies with these software packages being incompatible with macOS 10.15's " hardened runtime" requirement. Users have reported crashes when attempting to launch Viscosity, when attempting to connect a VPN connection, or when clicking on a password field. We've also received reports of two enterprise security software packages, namely "SentinelOne" and "Digital Guardian", causing Viscosity to crash under macOS 10.15. For those stuck on older versions of the driver, we've also managed to implement a workaround in Viscosity to allow the driver to load. We've been informed that updating to the latest version of the driver (10.2 Post GA R2) should resolve this. The driver does not conform to macOS 10.15's dynamic library linking requirements, and so macOS blocks it from loading. We’re also aware of difficulty using the SafeNet Authentication Client (SAC) PKCS#11 driver with Viscosity 1.8.4 and earlier on macOS 10.15. ![]() An issue where users may not get prompted for their U2F credentials on some Windows 10 machines has been resolved, as well as an issue that could cause VPN connections to fail to automatically reconnect. In particular, Viscosity is now better able to prevent loopback DNS settings remaining in rare situations caused by a Windows crash or surprise hardware removal. The Windows version has a number of small improvements to both the DNS and networking to improve reliability, especially in certain enterprise setups. ![]() An issue where Full DNS wouldn't be applied when using a split-routed TAP/bridged connection using DHCP for IP assignment has also been resolved. On the macOS side, this update resolves a number of rare crashes that have been reported to us, as well as an issue that could prevent custom menu item scripts in a bundled version of Viscosity from running. In such an environment the last thing we want is for changes to Viscosity's behaviour or user interface to surprise users or add additional workload to already overburdened staff. We've received countless reports of Viscosity playing a widespread and vital role for businesses and educational institutions with staff working from home. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we've limited this update to bug fixes and small improvements only, with no major changes. Viscosity version 1.8.5 is now available for both macOS and Windows! This update is primarily a maintenance release to keep Viscosity and your VPN connections running smoothly. ![]()
