Per Patrick Wardle, this was well reported to Apple during beta.

IMO those Mac anti-virus tools are basically malware exploiting all kinds of loopholes and hacks to get their hands on everything going on in the system. It's a good thing Apple fixes those loopholes and it's not Apple's responsibility to make sure every hack used by these tools keeps working.
Apple, or at least their teams responsible for answering feedback, rarely ever give substantial responses nowadays, regardless of how well documented the submission was. So it compounds the frustration.
And this isn’t even the most egregious case, sometimes the bugs are so obvious that they generate multiple hard faults, per hour, logged in Console, on a fresh installation with only the default apps running.
Apple is not responsible for ensuring your malware (yes, that’s what I personally consider this software) or even your software runs on Mac.
The betas are there for you to test your code against future Mac releases. Apple can and probably will take away APIs that your business is built around. Especially when those APIs are actually decreasing security.
Thank you, this makes the frustration in the above quote more understandable. For anyone wanting to avoid the x click:
> Worth stressing this was reported to Apple before the GA was released (by multiple people, to multiple teams/orgs within Apple) so Apple 100% knew about this, and shipped macOS 15 anyways
