While installing Android Studio IDE on your Mac OS X Operating system if you were asked to enter password (admin/privileged access) to make changes to postscript and wondered what to do? Is it a malware or something, should i go ahead or not! Well, I had the same questions and here is what i found,

Its an Apple Script Runtime. It executes AppleScripts and other OSA language scripts.

Osascript executes the given script. It was designed for use with AppleScript but work with any Open Scripting Architecture (OSA) language. Reference Link :

This appears when the log console says Running Intelยฎ HAXM installer,

Further reading on Android Open Source Project - Issue tracking website it seems that it is expected and you should allow the changes
