See comment 27 for context, but it appears that the current use of `NSConnection` is triggering an OS prompt that asks for permission to grant local network connection access to the privileged helper tool. It appears that declining this permission prevents IPC communication to occur between the privileged helper tool and the updater, which prevents updates from succeeding.
