MSAL is not safe for use in application extensions

[artemisia-absynthium]

Hello,

I'm using MSAL in an app which has also a Widget extension where I need to make authenticated calls to refresh data, and since I started using MSAL from inside the widget I'm getting this warning:

linking against a dylib which is not safe for use in application extensions: /.../MSAL.framework/MSAL

So far nothing wrong has happened in this widget but I'm concerned that with time and/or changes, either in my app or in future MSAL updates, something wrong may start to happen since compatibility is not guaranteed in the first place.

Could it be possible to make the lib safe or, alternatively, release a separate module that's safe for application extensions?

Thank you very much!

Other apps that use MSAL in their extension doesn't see the warning. Can you follow suggestion in this link to see if it helps:

Hi @hieunguyenmsft , thanks for pointing that out, I get the point now, anyway I don't feel comfortable in suppressing warnings so I will keep it.
Maybe you could file a feedback report to Apple though, for presenting the warning even if the unsafe code is properly isolated.
As for this issue, if I got it right and it's just a false positive, you can close it.
Thanks!
