FUSION 360 and mcOS 10.15 crashes and potential security breaches

Sorry to post this again but its not getting any response from AutoDesk.

 

I have upgraded again to the very latest version of macOS 10.15.5 and still FUSION 360 crashes on startup, but now its even worse, with 10.15.5 which was the only recommendation received from AutoDesk it now panics the whole machine and crashes macOS.

 

I have done some digging into the crash logs and bizarrely Fusion 360 appears to be pulling system info for mobile devices from the blue tooth registry, what the hell is it doing that for?  

 

As far as I can tell this breaks a heap of apple developer rules, macOS is within the context of a consumer-grade OS designed to be quite secure, applications are not supposed to be accessing information from the system info db about devices especially device profiles that hold PII data.

 

Would someone from AutoDesk please respond both as to why you still haven't fixed Fusion 360 support for Catalina and what are you doing accessing information about mobile phone devices held in the SystemInfo registry

Only closing the loop on this post.

 

I think your question might be better answered here:

Has anything improved? I checked today and indeed 10.15.5 is the most used macOS by Fusion customers on mac, by a massive margin. Please let us know on the other thread how it's going for you and if I can help any more.
