[ .. hangs .. ]

https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/11893 suggests that security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin allow might stop working on macOS 15 runners. This was recommended to us in https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/4734.

Research direction

Start with the failing macOS CI log and the integration-tests/one-existing-ca.pem flow, especially the security authorizationdb and security remove-trusted-cert commands. Compare the successful and failing runner versions, then determine why the cleanup hangs and verify that the macOS integration tests complete successfully without hanging.
