USB devices connected to a Mac must be authorized. [IMPORTANT] ==== This feature is removed if a smart card is paired or smart card attribute mapping is configured. ====

Check Content

Verify the macOS system is configured to authorize USB devices before allowing connection with the following command:

/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript << EOS
  function run() {
    let pref1 = ObjC.unwrap($.NSUserDefaults.alloc.initWithSuiteName('com.apple.applicationaccess')\
  .objectForKey('allowUSBRestrictedMode'))
    if ( pref1 == false ) {
      return("false")
    } else {
      return("true")
    }
  }
EOS

If the result is not "true", this is a finding.
