GrapheneOS Organization Addresses Element Blog in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Thank you for your feedback.

Suggesting we use personal accounts for discussions like this overlooks the accountability we have to provide accurate and transparent feedback on issues directly impacting our infrastructure. Constructively critiquing software that affects the performance of hosting critical organizational chat rooms is not entitlement—it’s responsibility. These concerns are real and measurable, with tangible effects on user experience and scalability.

This is based on firsthand experience hosting our own Matrix homeserver instance for our community space chat rooms using their software, not on tautological reasoning.

No issues with running the RSA Authenticator (SecurID) app on both the Pixel 6 and 8 on the latest Android 14 build of GrapheneOS.

See previous reply for details as to why it wasn't working for non-GrapheneOS users as well - over a year ago is when it started being problematic.

It works as far as I can tell. However, it wasn't always the case.

My company also mentioned that GrapheneOS isn't supported by them.

Version 4.3.12 is - I just installed it on both the Pixel 6 and the new Pixel 8, both running the latest GrapheneOS builds with Android 14.

they don’t support grapheneos though, specifically said the app won’t work on it

In the summer of 2022, numerous issues arose for non-GrapheneOS users as well, as reflected in the reviews. This was because the SecurID update began utilizing the Play Integrity API to detect non-certified OS/devices. The Play Integrity API has since replaced the now-obsolete SafetyNet attestation API.

The issue tracker has slightly more current banking app reports:

2021121602

Tags:

  • SP1A.210812.015.2021121602 (Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL) — extended support release for legacy devices with frozen 2021-11-01 patch level
  • SQ1A.211205.008.2021121602 (Pixel 3a, Pixel 3a XL, Pixel 4, Pixel 4 XL, Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a (5G), Pixel 5, Pixel 5a, emulator, generic, other targets)

Changes since the 2021121012 release:

  • Vanadium: update Chromium base to 96.0.4664.104
  • skip reporting network connectivity to the OS from apps with the Network (INTERNET) permission revoked to avoid triggering a SecurityException

The Auditor app uses hardware security features on supported devices to validate the integrity of the operating system from another Android device. It will verify that the device is running the stock operating system with the bootloader locked and that no tampering with the operating system has occurred. It will also detect downgrades to a previous version.

Auditor app version 34 released: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Auditor/releases/tag/34

See the linked release notes for an overview of the improvements and a link to the full list of changes.

See https://attestation.app/about%C2%A0and%C2%A0https://attestation.app/tutorial%C2%A0for info about the app and optional monitoring service.
