Description Gabriel N 2022-03-28 05:43:08 PDT
Overview:

Trying to use TouchID for WebAuthN does not work. I have narrowed it down to the "attestation" parameter being set. If it is not set, it works.

Steps to Reproduce: 

1) Go to https://webauthn.io 
2) Enter anything on example_username
3) Change the dropdown for attestation to either direct or indirect. 
4) Click register. Click Continue in the prompt "Do you want to save a passkey for X"
5) Touch the fingerprint sensor when asked

Actual Result: Error stating "The operation cannot be completed."

Expected: Successfully registering.
 
In Safari 15.4 it will also fail similarly, but it will fail in a worse way where the whole browser window is unusable and must be force killed.

If I skip step 3 and leave attestation at "none". Things will work as expected.

Thank you for the report. The cause of this issue is outside of the WebKit project, so I'm marking this as RESOLVED - MOVED, as the radar is being handled elsewhere. 

We hope to have some news to share about this bug soon, and will update this Bugzilla once a build is available to confirm the fix.
