* Per 2a3e82fa96, it looks like some Windows 7 system have trouble with
LoadLibraryEx() if they don't have KB2533623 installed (which fixes a MAJOR Windows
vulnerability. Some people sure want to leave their system open to hackers...).
* Work around this by adding a fallback to LoadLibrary() in GetLibraryHandle()
* Also switch to using GetLibraryHandle() in dos.c and using LoadLibrary() in sections
where we have the full path (since these calls are not vulnerable).
* If 'Extended Windows 11 Installation' mode is selected, the system registry hive of
'sources\boot.wim' is patched to add the Setup\LabConfig registry keys that bypass
the TPM 2.0/Secure Boot/8GB+ RAM Windows 11 system requirements.
* Use sources/compatresources.dll, when available, to try to detect the Windows ISO version and build.
* Also report what facility we use for formatting.
* Since version 8.2, and rhinstaller/anaconda@a766101954,
Red Hat derivatives have changed their CD-ROM detection policy which leads to
the installation source not being found when writing the media in ISO mode.
* Replace 'inst.stage2' by 'inst.repo' in the kernel options.
* Closes#1777 (See also rhinstaller/anaconda#rhinstaller/anaconda#3529).
* Note that this reverts part of 9c8fa40995.
* If users set the persistent size to max, we may run into a situation
where projected size (which is always a rough estimation) is too low.
* When persistence is in use, we increase the projected size by 10%, to
ensure that the above scenario cannot happen.
* Also work around potential issues with Windows APIs when the application
is launched from the root of a drive.
* While this is intended to solve the issue of saving GRUB/Syslinux files for the
App Store version, we apply this change globally, as it allows the user to move
the Rufus executable around while preserving access to existing downloads.
* Closes#1744
* This basically means that the script is validate *TWICE*, using two
completely independent signatures, before it is allowed to run, which
should add another mitigation layer against TOCTOU (which we already
friggin' mitigated against anyway) and other potential vectors of
attack.
* Also remove -DisableFirstRunCustomize option and the associated cookie
prompt monitoring, which the latest version of Fido no longer requires.
* Also update WDK version for signtool and flesh out PKI error messages.
* Anaconda broke ISO compatibility, most likely with the following commit:
84529204fe
* However, Ret Hat, and its followers, have drunk the "DD only" kool aid, and
appear to be blissfully unaware of the very real drawbacks that enforcing a
"DD only" mode for ISOHybrid can actually place on distro users.
* Rather than spend another wasted effort trying get people, who appear to be
impervious to even remotely consider the idea that DD imaging can have flaws,
to look into the possibility that Red Hat might indeed have introduced a
regression, and given the downright hostility I have been subjected to from
trying to state this *very verifiable* fact, we'll just force DD mode for the
affected Red Hat and derivatives, whilst trusting that users will be smart
enough to compare their more limited installation experience against the ones
from other distros (such as Arch, Debian or Ubuntu, which, unlike Red Hat and
co., appear to fully understand that the whole ISOHybrid vs DD mode situation
is not all black and white), and see for themselves which distros do actually
place *their* interests first, rather than just the interests of the distro
maintainers...
* InternetGetConnectedState() is next to useless and doesn't provide
coherent outcome on the ARM64 platform I'm testing with. This results
in Rufus declaring that Internet is unavailable on platforms that do
have actual Internet connectivity.
* Swicth to using INetworkListManager::GetConnectivity(), which actually
reports a dependable result.
* Closes#1691
* Also remove the mutex for uprintf(), which may produce thread lockout
and remove an unwanted double GetSignatureName() call on startup.
* Looks like executables installed from the Windows Store launch with a "/InvokerPRAID"
added parameter, which of course BREAKS apps that have a defined set of parameters
and don't except that Microsoft would gingerly add random unwanted stuff there...
* The provision of this extra parameter also appears to be tied to using one of:
- <TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Universal" ...>
- <uap:SplashScreen ...>
- <Application EntryPoint="$targetentrypoint$" ...>
in the appxmanifest.
* This resulted in our argument processing loop to cause early exit on account that an
unexpected option was provided.
* Fix this by adding an explicit check for /InvokerPRAID and not exiting on unhandled
params and removing or altering the 3 appxmanifest options listed above.
* Also set an explicit Windows.FullTrustApplication and remove splash screen.
* Also update _pre-commit.sh to update appstore build number automatically.
* Also remove splash screen images, add store listing CSV and toggle App builds to manual.
* Closes#1690
* Make sure that instantiated objects are released.
* Factorize the instantiating of disk interfaces.
* Allow the provision of an offset to delete a single partition.
* Add a ListVdsVolumes() call (which is pointless since Microsoft *CRIPPLED* its VDS implementation).
* Make sure that if we skip a deep directory during scan, we count at
least one block of data.
* Also produce a note about deep directory long scan times and improve
the formatting of some messages.
* The presence of a > 4 GB file forces the use of NTFS which is incompatible with
SysLinux 4.x or earlier. As such, if an image uses SysLinux only, there's no
point in enabling MBR as SysLinux won't boot.
* Required for ISOs such as securityonion-2.0.1-rc1.iso.
* Don't use hDrive handle for longer than necessary
* Move all the popcount() function calls into missing.h
* Ensure that the thread_affinity[] array is properly sized
* Improve timeouts for conflicting process search
* A user is reporting that, on one of their platforms, Rufus is writing to the wrong target during the file-copy
phase and using their existing Y: local drive instead of the drive associated to the USB, despite the fact
that Rufus is passing the right volume name to GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName().
* Here's the PowerShell wmic output, confirming that the volume GUID obtained by Rufus is the right one:
DriveLetter : Y:
DeviceId : \\?\Volume{000349b1-17d0-69f6-c13f-f31162930600}\
Capacity : 118540464128
FileSystem : NTFS
Label : Y-DISK
DriveLetter : H:
DeviceId : \\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\
Capacity : 15791824896
FileSystem : FAT32
Label : ADATA16GB
* And here's the Rufus log demonstrating that GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName() is returning the *WRONG* letter:
Found volume \\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\
\\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\ is already mounted as Y: instead of H: - Will now use this target instead...
* The last line shows, without the shadow of a doubt, that we did feed "\\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\" to
GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName() and that this API call was successful (returned a non zero size) but ultimately returned
the wrong letter (Y: instead of H:)...
* Therefore, Windows is BUGGY and the use of GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName() must be avoided.
* Closes#1467
* Also ensure that previous element is set when repositioning a
control to preserve tabbing order
* Also fix x64 version being able to download x86 BETA
