My app sent a network request to the backend. The backend returns a 200, but the front end received a -1001 or -1005 NSURLError. Any clue why this could be happening?

Could anyone teach me how to ask iOS 18 to have a prompt during set-up process of a new APP if user accidentally turns off Local Network ?

Is it possible using the network framework to retrieve the list of certificates presented by the host alone, and not the reconstructed chain assembled by the system? For example, in OpenSSL one can call SSL_get_peer_cert_chain which will return exactly this - a list of the certificates presented by the server. This is useful for when you may want to manually reconstruct the chain, or if the server is misconfigured (for example, is missing an intermediate cert). Is something like this possible with the network framework? If I connect to a host that I know only returns 1 certificate, the trust ref already has the reconstructed chain by the time my code is called: sec_protocol_options_set_verify_block(tlsOptions.securityProtocolOptions, { metadata, trustRef, verifyComplete in let trust = sec_trust_copy_ref(trustRef).takeRetainedValue() let numberOfCertificates = SecTrustGetCertificateCount(trust) // Returns 3 even though the server only sent 1

When I use NSURLSessionTaskTransactionMetrics property domainLookupStartDate and domainLookupEndDate to calculate the duration of DNS, sometimes I get 4294893875545978 or -4294893875545978 return method like this [NSNumber numberWithLongLong:[taskMetrics.domainLookupEndDate timeIntervalSinceDate:taskMetrics.domainLookupStartDate?]*1000000000] The hexadecimal value of 4294893875545978 is 0xF3F3F3F3F3F3A. Is 4294893875545978 a special value？

Hello, Title states it basically. I have a java program (launched via shell script) running as a service using launchd which is running as a user (not root) and it does not request Local Network permissions ever. I feel like i'm missing something here. I combed through all of the Local Network FAQs and don't really see this use case addressed. I do see that there is an open ticket for an API to trigger the request, but no update on that and the ticket is not visible publicly. Is there is a way to accomplish this for java or other programs running via launchd with a user other than root? something like an entitlement or an API to seed the permission of Local Network when installing the service via launchctl etc?

We have developed a DNS filter based on NEDNSProxyProvider. It works great for a minute, then it stops responding. Our logs indicate that during the outage our extension gets DNS requests and formulates DNS responses that it hands back to the OS, but from outside of our code it is as though our extension is not responding.

On iOS 18.3, I noted that partition "HTTPCookiePropertyKey: StoragePartition" is not observed to be set for cookies returned from the wkwebview cookie store. Now on 18.4 beta 4 we are now seeing those same cookies are populated with a partition property. Is there documentation for this change? Is it intended to be suddenly populated in 18.4? Now that partition property is set, HTTPCookieStorage.shared.cookies(for: serverUri) doesn't seem to return the expected cookies correctly. For context, we are using the cookies extracted from wkwebview, setting them in HTTPCookieStorage.shared and using URLSession to make network calls outside the webivew. Works fine once I forcefully set partition on the cookie to nil. More details on what the cookie looks like here: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/16906526 Hopefully this is on your radar?

When I make a local network HTTP request, an error occurs. I'm sure I've granted wireless data permissions and local network permissions, and I'm connected to the correct Wi-Fi. This problem is intermittent, but once it happens, it will keep happening, and the only way to fix it is to restart the phone.

Hi there, can some one help how to debug this crashes? where I can start to find root causes of this crashes.

The newly introduced enum value NEProviderStopReasonInternalError (macOS 15.1) is not documented (assuming being documented means having at least a sentence describing the enum value). [Q] What kind of situation is the NEProviderStopReasonInternalError enum value supposed to describe? An internal error that requires to try to restart the provider? A fatal error that requires to reinstall macOS? A fatal error that requires to purchase a new Mac? Something less serious but with a human friendly description in the headers (I'm using Xcode 16.2) and online documentation.

I'm simply trying to use a proxy to route a http request in Swift. I've tried using a URLSession Delegate but that results in the same issue with the iOS menu. proxy format: host:port:username:password When I run the code below I am prompted with a menu to add credentials for the proxy. I closed this menu inside my app and tried the function below again and it worked without giving me the menu a second time. However even though the function works without throwing any errors, it does NOT use the proxies to route the request. I've spent days on this and the only solution I found was using a NWConnection but this is super low level and now I need a shared session to manage cookies. If you want to see the NWConnection solution I made its here func averageProxyGroupSpeed(proxies: [String], completion: @escaping (Int, String) -> Void) { let numProxies = proxies.count if numProxies == 0 { completion(0, "No proxies") return } var totalTime: Int64 = 0 var successCount = 0 let group = DispatchGroup() let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "proxyQueue", attributes: .concurrent) let lock = NSLock() let shuffledProxies = proxies.shuffled() let selectedProxies = Array(shuffledProxies.prefix(25)) for proxy in selectedProxies { group.enter() queue.async { let proxyDetails = proxy.split(separator: ":").map(String.init) guard proxyDetails.count == 4, let port = Int(proxyDetails[1]), let url = URL(string: "http://httpbin.org/get") else { completion(0, "Invalid proxy format") group.leave() return } var request = URLRequest(url: url) request.timeoutInterval = 15 let configuration = URLSessionConfiguration.default configuration.connectionProxyDictionary = [ AnyHashable("HTTPEnable"): true, AnyHashable("HTTPProxy"): proxyDetails[0], AnyHashable("HTTPPort"): port, AnyHashable("HTTPSEnable"): false, AnyHashable("HTTPUser"): proxyDetails[2], AnyHashable("HTTPPassword"): proxyDetails[3] ] let session = URLSession(configuration: configuration) let start = Date() let task = session.dataTask(with: request) { _, _, error in defer { group.leave() } if let error = error { print("Error: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { let duration = Date().timeIntervalSince(start) * 1000 lock.lock() totalTime += Int64(duration) successCount += 1 lock.unlock() } } task.resume() } } group.notify(queue: DispatchQueue.main) { if successCount == 0 { completion(0, "Proxies Failed") } else { let averageTime = Int(Double(totalTime) / Double(successCount)) completion(averageTime, "") } } } Delegate example class ProxySessionDelegate: NSObject, URLSessionDelegate { let username: String let password: String init(username: String, password: String) { self.username = username self.password = password } func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void) { if challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod == NSURLAuthenticationMethodHTTPBasic { let credential = URLCredential(user: self.username, password: self.password, persistence: .forSession) completionHandler(.useCredential, credential) } else { completionHandler(.performDefaultHandling, nil) } } }

I am trying to convert a simple URLSession request in Swift to using NWConnection. This is because I want to make the request using a Proxy that requires Authentication.

Problem Description When using iCloud Private Relay (Limit IP address tracking) on macOS Sonoma, I'm experiencing a DNS resolving issue when simultaneously connected via OpenVPN. The system activates iCloud Private Relay instead of using the DNS servers provided by the VPN connection, resulting in incorrect IP address resolution. Specific issues: When connected to my company VPN, the system ignores DNS servers set by the VPN connection When attempting to ping internal servers in the corporate network, I receive public IP addresses instead of internal corporate IP addresses These public IP addresses are not accessible from outside as some services are disabled for external access Tools like nslookup and dig correctly resolve internal addresses, but ping and regular applications use incorrect (public) IP addresses Access to local servers in the corporate network/subnet is problematic Expected Behavior I need the system to: Use DNS servers provided by the VPN connection for accessing internal corporate resources when connected via VPN Simultaneously maintain iCloud Private Relay protection for regular internet browsing while connected to VPN Technical Details Based on available information, the problem is likely caused by "iCloud Private Relay" inserting an additional DNS resolver that isn't visible through the scutil tool. Regular applications use macOS internal API for DNS resolving, while tools like dig and nslookup work differently. According to Apple documentation, it should be possible to use custom DNS settings with iCloud Private Relay, but it doesn't seem to work properly with OpenVPN. Temporary Solutions I've Tried Some sources suggest: Disabling iCloud Private Relay (I don't want to lose privacy protection) Creating an /etc/resolver directory with configuration for specific domains Manually adding static routes for specific IP addresses None of these solutions provide the ideal combination of VPN DNS functionality and privacy protection. Request for Solution Please implement a solution that allows: Prioritizing DNS servers provided by VPN connection for internal domains Maintaining iCloud Private Relay protection for other communications Ensuring consistent behavior of all applications during DNS resolving Thank you for your help.

It doesn’t seem like there’s any high level, first-party documentation on how to use what is the recommended API for executing networking logic that you otherwise wouldn’t use URLSession for; which is a lot of things. There’s a sample app, and docs on how to choose the right network API in general, but apparently no high level API docs for Network.framework itself. Am I missing something? How do people learn to use this? Know which classes to use? Know the various ways it can be configured?

Hello, I'm having some problems starting my DNS proxy network extension. Even after I call NEDNSProxyManager.saveToPreference() successfully I don't see any logs from my dns proxy. This is the code from the user space app: import SwiftUI import NetworkExtension func configureDNSProxy() { let dnsProxyManager = NEDNSProxyManager.shared() dnsProxyManager.loadFromPreferences { error in if let error = error { print("Error loading DNS proxy preferences: \(error)") return } dnsProxyManager.localizedDescription = "my DNS proxy" let proto = NEDNSProxyProviderProtocol() proto.providerBundleIdentifier = "com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne" dnsProxyManager.providerProtocol = proto // Enable the DNS proxy. dnsProxyManager.isEnabled = true dnsProxyManager.saveToPreferences { error in if let error = error { print("Error saving DNS proxy preferences: \(error)") } else { NSLog("DNS Proxy enabled successfully") } } } } @main struct dns_proxy_testsApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() } } init() { configureDNSProxy() } } This is the code for my network extension(DNSProxyProvider.swift): import NetworkExtension class DNSProxyProvider: NEDNSProxyProvider { override func startProxy(options:[String: Any]? = nil, completionHandler: @escaping (Error?) -> Void) { NSLog("dns proxy ne started") completionHandler(nil) } override func stopProxy(with reason: NEProviderStopReason, completionHandler: @escaping () -> Void) { NSLog("dns proxy ne stopped") completionHandler() } override func sleep(completionHandler: @escaping () -> Void) { NSLog("dns proxy ne sleep") completionHandler() } override func wake() { NSLog("dns proxy ne wake") } override func handleNewFlow(_ flow: NEAppProxyFlow) -> Bool { NSLog("dns proxy ne flow") return true } } The bundle identifier for my network extension is: com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne and both the user space app and the network extension have the DNS Proxy capability. Both have the same app group capability with the same group name group.com.myteam.dns-proxy-test. The info.plist from the network extension look like this(I didn't really modify it from the default template created by xcode) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>NetworkExtension</key> <dict> <key>NEMachServiceName</key> <string>$(TeamIdentifierPrefix)com.example.app-group.MySystemExtension</string> <key>NEProviderClasses</key> <dict> <key>com.apple.networkextension.dns-proxy</key> <string>$(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME).DNSProxyProvider</string> </dict> </dict> </dict> </plist> In the logs I do see DNS Proxy enabled successfully and also I see: NESMDNSProxySession[Primary Tunnel:my DNS proxy:<...>:(null)] starting with configuration: { name = my DNS proxy identifier = <..> applicationName = dns-proxy-tests application = com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests grade = 1 dnsProxy = { enabled = YES protocol = { type = dnsProxy identifier = <...> identityDataImported = NO disconnectOnSleep = NO disconnectOnIdle = NO disconnectOnIdleTimeout = 0 disconnectOnWake = NO disconnectOnWakeTimeout = 0 disconnectOnUserSwitch = NO disconnectOnLogout = NO includeAllNetworks = NO excludeLocalNetworks = NO excludeCellularServices = YES excludeAPNs = YES excludeDeviceCommunication = YES enforceRoutes = NO pluginType = com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests providerBundleIdentifier = com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne designatedRequirement = identifier "com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne" <...> /* exists */ } } } But then I see: Checking for com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne - com.apple.networkextension.dns-proxy But then finally Found 0 registrations for com.myteam.dns-proxy-tests.ne (com.apple.networkextension.dns-proxy) So I think that last log probably indicates the problem. I'm a bit lost at what I'm doing wrong so I'd be super thankful for any pointer!

We’re looking to implement a custom IPSec IKEv2 VPN using the Packet Tunnel Provider network extension on iOS because we need to add extra information to EAP, which the built-in IKEv2 VPN configuration does not support. Is it possible to handle the full IKEv2 negotiation and IPSec tunneling within the Packet Tunnel Provider extension? Or are there limitations that would prevent implementing a full IKEv2 stack this way? Any insights or alternative approaches would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I saw that almost each OS version, on ios and macos, handles differently changing includeAllNetworks while the tunnel is running. On some the entire OS reports no-net, while others, specially latest versions, handle this fine. Can includeAllNetworks be changed while the tunnel is running, or the tunnel must be stopped and restarted with the new value? e.g. the tunnel is started with it set to false, but later is changed to true into VPN profile. And on the same note, regarding setTunnelNetworkSettings, can this be called multiple times while the tunnel is running? For example if the VPN server IP changes. Because what I've saw each call to setTunnelNetworkSettings after VPN connected results in at least DNS leaks, because the routing table is recreated. Let me know if it is easier to track to create separate questions. Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm currently working on a project where I need to send multicast packets across all available network interfaces using Apple Network Framework's NWConnectionGroup. Specifically, the MacBook (device I am using for sending multicast requests, MacOS: 15.1) is connected to two networks: Wi-Fi (Network 1) and Ethernet (Network 2), and I need to send multicast requests over both interfaces. I tried using the .requiredInterface property as suggested by Eskimo in this post, but I’m running into issues. It seems like I can't create an NWInterface object because it doesn't have any initializers. Here is the code which I wrote: var multicast_group_descriptor : NWMulticastGroup var multicast_endpoint : NWEndpoint multicast_endpoint = NWEndpoint.hostPort(host: NWEndpoint.Host("234.0.0.1"), port: NWEndpoint.Port(rawValue: 49154)!) var connection_group : NWConnectionGroup var multicast_params : NWParameters multicast_params = NWParameters.udp var interface = NWInterface(NWInterface.InterfaceType.wiredEthernet) I get following error: 'NWInterface' cannot be constructed because it has no accessible initializers I also experimented with the .requiredInterfaceType property. Even when I set it to .wiredEthernet and then change it to .wifi, I am still unable to send requests over the Wi-Fi network. Here is the code I wrote: var multicast_params : NWParameters multicast_params = NWParameters.udp multicast_params.allowLocalEndpointReuse = true multicast_params.requiredInterfaceType = .wiredEthernet var ip = multicast_params.defaultProtocolStack.internetProtocol! as! NWProtocolIP.Options ip.disableMulticastLoopback = true connection_group = NWConnectionGroup(with: multicast_group_descriptor, using: multicast_params) connection_group.stateUpdateHandler = { state in print(state) if state == .ready { connection_group.send(content: "Hello from machine on 15".data(using: .utf8)) { error in print("Send to mg1 completed on wired Ethernet with error \(error?.errorCode)") var params = connection_group.parameters params.requiredInterfaceType = .wifi connection_group.send(content: "Hello from machine on 15 P2 on Wi-Fi".data(using: .utf8)) { error in print("Send to mg1 completed on Wi-Fi with error \(error?.errorCode)") } } } } Is this expected behavior when using NWConnectionGroup? Or is there a different approach I should take to ensure multicast requests are sent over both interfaces simultaneously? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Harshal
