Description

macOS 15 introduces a new privacy pane in the System Settings for Local Network Access.
Other panes can be opened from a third-party app through an anchor with an URL like:

x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.preference.security?Privacy_Photos

Unfortunately, the new Local Network pane is missing such an anchor.
It is important to be able to open this section from an app in order to guide a user who needs to control that feature.
