vpnagentd wants to control Finder

[Argos1]

Greetings. Looking to the Nation to see if anyone has this issue and a resolution. We are in the process of removing existing separate installs of Cisco AnyConnect and Umbrella roaming client and installing a bundle package with just VPN and Umbrella client. The uninstall Policy to remove works, but the end user will get a popup to respond ok to the following: "vpnagentd" wants to access to control Finder. Allowing control will provide access to documents and data in Finder to perform actions within that app".  I've been working with a PPPC but no luck yet. 

Thanks. in advance

In your pppc profile did you try adding an Apple event for com.apple.finder? (Code requirement: identifier "com.apple.finder" and anchor apple)

We are testing the new version and added all three AppleAevents but it doesn’t seem to help with this prompt. Only the Finder item was mentioned, but I went ahead and added all three.

The vpnagentd item shows under Privacy & Security > Automation.

Thankfully it doesn’t require admin rights. Curious if anyone has been able to suppress this?

After some testing, we were able to resolve it by running /opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpn disconnect as a BEFORE script in the policy. That seems to resolve the issue.

Oh man, this is awesome! This was the key for me. I was trying to get the new Cisco Secure Client installed on our systems....but I was trying to do it silently. I kept getting this pop up and it was driving me crazy. Thank you so much!!
