authorizationdb for macOS updates/upgrades

[tommmy_s]

I've seen many admins using the following command to allow non-admins to make changes to the network preferences. 

security authorizationdb write system.preferences.network allow

Any of the admins here making changes to authorizationdb to allow non-admins perform software updates and upgrades?

In our org, not everyone would get local admin access and the software update seems to ask for admin credentials. If you have a working/testing (preferable for Monterey/Ventura+) version of it, can you please share? 

Thanks all!

Minor updates don't require admin, and as of macOS 12.3 Major ones done with the recommended Delta Update route don't either.  On Apple Silicon, updates do require a Volume Owner enter their password, but this is separate from Admin and is generally automatically given either by macOS or Jamf (via Bootstrap Token).
