来自Apple的文档

文件系统权限和文件系统事件

File System Permissions and File System Events

与文件系统事件相关的最明显的安全隐患是隐私之一.如果Bob可以看到Alice的主目录更改中的事件列表，则Bob可能会看到Alice不想看到的内容.例如，爱丽丝的目录名称可能与未发布的Apple产品的代码名称一致.

The most obvious security concern related to file system events is one of privacy. If Bob can see a list of events from changes to Alice’s home directory, Bob might see things that Alice does not want him to see. For example, Alice might have a directory name that coincides with the code name of an unreleased Apple product.

为防止这种潜在的安全漏洞，除非用户可以通过标准文件系统权限访问修改后的目录，否则用户不会收到任何事件.

To prevent this potential security leak, users do not receive any events unless the user can reach the modified directory through standard file system permissions.

注意:作为副作用，即使用户正在监视从根开始的所有目录上的所有事件，提供给文件系统事件客户端的事件ID也不一定是连续的. 只能保证以root用户身份运行的应用程序能够接收所有事件.

Note: As a side effect, event IDs presented to a file system events client will not necessarily be consecutive even if the user is monitoring all events on all directories beginning at the root. Only applications running as the root user can be guaranteed to receive all events.
