deny file-read-data on Espionage.keychain since Lion

[nexus66]

Dear all,

I'm getting thousands (several 10 per second) of log messages a day like:

WebProcess(6656) deny file-read-data /Users/<myuserid>/Library/Application Support/Espionage/Espionage.keychain

from sandboxd since I have upgraded to Lion. The espionage version is 2.8.13 .

Any ideas how to fix this?

Cheers, nexus66

Welcome to the forums, nexus66!

What you are seeing is due to Safari 5.1's new "sandbox" isolation process. Something within the Safari environment is attempting to check your Espionage keychain (for some reason) and due to this sandboxing, those accesses are denied. We are looking into what component(s) are causing these access attempts. Hopefully we can find something that can be done to minimize or eliminate these messages.

It's important to note that it is not Espionage making these access, and that it is not any kind of "attack" on your Espionage passwords stored in the keychain. It is simply something that needs to be looked into further from our point of view so that you don't get scared by the message and that it doesn't get logged so often — if that's possible.

Thanks a lot for the quick answer. I wasn't scared too much - just wanted to decrease the log pollution after the lion upgrade
and this is not the only frequent warning. Thanks a lot for your very nice tool!
