macOS Mojave and smart card source code

Apple released the source code of the open source components they use in Mojave (macOS 10.14, released in September 2018). The components are available at macOS X 10.14 Source.

Many smart card components are now closed source and maintained by Apple for its different OSes. I can cite:

• CryptoTokenKit
• PC/SC API

CCID driver

Apple provides my Free Software CCID driver. The source code from Apple is available at:

• SmartcardCCID-55017

Version 55017 corresponds to CCID version 1.4.27 and was already present in macOS High Sierra as noted in "macOS High Sierra and smart cards status".

Tokend

Apple still provides "support" of the tokend technology even if it is deprecated since OS X Lion (2011). The source code is provided at:

• SecurityTokend-55111

The version 55111 has not changed since macOS Sierra. see "macOS Sierra and smart card source code".

Conclusion

No change in the free software component binaries so also no change in the corresponding component source codes.
