Safari extension

[shrisivakumaran]

Hi All,

does anyone know/have extension attributes to find installed extension in Safari browser?

[MPL]

We don't use this anymore, but we used to use it. Last time we did, it worked fairly well:

• To note, I think python will need to be on the systems

#!/usr/local/bin/managed_python3


#         Name:  safari_extensions.py
#         Description:  This extension attribute returns a list of the names and
#              versions of all Safari add-ons installed for the current
#              user. Inspired by the managed_python3 version of Chrome Extensions script by Elliot Jordan <elliot@lindegroup.com>

def get_current_user():

def get_extensions(username):
		extensions_list = ("/Users/%s/Library/Containers/com.apple.Safari/"
			"Data/Library/Safari/AppExtensions/Extensions.plist" % username)
		return extensions_list

def print_results(extensions_list):
    tree = ET.parse(extensions_list)
    root = tree.getroot()
    list = ""
    for key in root.iter('key'):
        match = re.search('com.',key.text)
        if match:
            result = key.text
            list = list + result + "\n"
    return list.strip()

def main():
		username = get_current_user()
		extensions_list = get_extensions(username)
		#results = parse_results(manifest_list)
		to_echo = print_results(extensions_list)
		print("<result>%s</result>" % to_echo)
	
if __name__ == '__main__':
		main()

This requires python in all system

I use this script, the only rub is it may still list an extension in the plist after you've already removed it.

#!/bin/bash

user=$(stat -f%Su /dev/console)
extensions_list="/Users/$user/Library/Containers/com.apple.Safari/Data/Library/Safari/WebExtensions/Extensions.plist"

ExtensionCheck=$( /bin/cat $extensions_list | /usr/bin/grep key | /usr/bin/grep extension)
echo "<result>$ExtensionCheck</result>"
exit 0

This scripts returns empty value when I run from Jamf EA.
when I run locally it return cat: /Users/sivakum/Library/Containers/com.apple.Safari/Data/Library/Safari/WebExtensions/Extensions.plist: Operation not permitted

I recently had need to deploy this: https://community.jamf.com/t5/jamf-pro/can-support-ea-for-this-script/m-p/321992/highlight/true#M277...

Should be easy to tailor for only Safari.
