asmjit+macos+x86: ephemeral "Verifying shm-id-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" security popups appear during each invocation of erlang #8043

Describe the bug
Ephemeral "Verifying shm-id-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" security popups on x86 macos sonoma (14.2.1) appear due to use of asmjit:

asmjit_popup

Opening this issue here because I'm not sure if it's an issue with how otp is configuring/using asmjit on this platform or something upstream.

Recompiling with --disable-jit to disable use of asmjit resolves the issue.

To Reproduce

while true; do
    erl -noinput -eval "io:format(\".\"),init:stop()."
done

(reproduction consists of security popups as in the above image repeatedly appearing for ~0.03s during each invocation)

Expected behavior
No security popups appear.

Affected versions
Tested with OTP-26.0.

Additional context
Others using erlang also seem to be affected.
