Facter / FACT-3201 Facter should report macOS "extra" version from Rapid Security Response updates Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Components: Facter 4 Created: 2023/05/04 12:11 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Clay Caviness Starting with macOS 13, Apple can use a "Rapid Security Response" process to push small system updates out. When one of these is applied, a new ProductVersionExtra field is output from the sw_vers command:   $ sw_vers ProductName:        macOS ProductVersion:        13.3.1 ProductVersionExtra:    (a) BuildVersion:        22E772610a If no Rapid Security Response update is installed, the ProductVersionExtra field does not appear:   $ sw_vers  ProductName:        macOS ProductVersion:        13.4 BuildVersion:        22F5049e  The os.macosx.productversion fact should report this. Currently it only reports full, major, minor, and patch fields. Adding an additional extra field for macOS 13 and later should suffice. Add Comment

Re: Facter should report macOS "extra" version from Rapid Security Response updates Hi Clay Caviness thank you for the PR! We don't currently support macOS 13 but this would be a helpful feature, we'll review your PR later when we add support for macOS 13.

Re: Facter should report macOS "extra" version from Rapid Security Response updates For what it's worth, we have a fleet of 180k+ machines running macOS 13, all using Puppet 7.20.0 and Facter 4.2.13 with no major compatibility issues. Also, macOS 14 will be announced in a few weeks, as well, likely released this fall.
