script freezes on frida 14

See original GitHub issue

Frida has recently been updated to 14, which has broken this script. It seems to dump certain files, but then freezes

After investigating @nfriedly’s issue (we work together), I realized that this issue can only be reproduced for apps that were installed via Configurator. Apps installed from the App Store had no issue.

Ideally this should work for all Configurator-installed apps since all assets are retained when extracting those (for apps that this tool works for). Otherwise, our workaround is to swap in assets from an encrypted app that was gotten through Configurator locally (pre-installation).
