* MIRACLE LINUX is a Red Hat derivative, so it needs the same special
treatment as Red Hat, CentOS, etc to work around issues in anaconda.
* This commit adds MIRACLE LINUX to the list of Red Hat derivatives.
* Closes#1866
* This fixes the regression introduced in c28f9bc491.
* 'if ((a && !b) || (!a && b))' can not always be simplified as 'if (a != b)' when the types for 'a' and 'b' are not straight booleans.
* Closes#1862
* Also drop the use of '%C' in printf() expression, as it is intended to print wide characters and not turn a char to uppercase.
* In their great "wisdom", Microsoft made it even harder to access ESPs on Windows 11,
meaning that we have to use even more convoluted ways of providing the ISO→ESP feature.
* Closes#1855
* Hypothetically if the user's current directory contains a malicious DLL that DLL
could be loaded instead of the one in System32.
* Whereas the previous patch should have taken care of the one DLL referenced by
Rufus that may be vulnerable to this attack (version.dll), we nonetheless add
delay loading for all the libraries we reference as a precautionary measure.
* One can confirm that this works by using dumpbin.exe /IMPORTS to make sure
a specific DLL is delay loaded. Then putting a breakpoint in the delay load
hook should also confirm that the hook is used.
* Closes#1838
* This is part of #1838, where we need to sort the version.dll sideloading problem for MinGW.
* A subsequent patch will be applied to MSVC, to more generally delay the loading of DLLs.
* Also fix a typo with an assert expression.
* Since CentOS Stream does not use the 'CentOS-8.*' labelling scheme.
* This is a follow up to #1777.
* Also fix Windows Kit location for signing scripts.
* I don't have time for this bullshit. Of course the irony is that a Microsoft product (CodeQL)
hosted on a Microsoft platform (GitHub) hasn't been updated to work with the latest Microsoft
compiler (VS2022).
* Also removed the stuff CodeQL complains about and updated README badges.
* Having two separate Visual Studio solution files, while more convenient, was a major
pain in the ass and it also required us to update versioning in the .appxmanifest for
each commit.
* Also, this new AppStore build process enables us to use the GitHub Actions executables
to further foster the complete transparency of our build process.
* This is a follow up to 1c2884ceba where the error code returned by Windows 7 platforms
that don't have KB2533623 is expected to be ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER rather than ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND.
* Also update the Windows 11 'Extended' installation mode translations.
* 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).
* Commit 9dc045a701 introduced a regression on account that we didn't set the
file pointer to 0 before clearing the disk.
* This leads to the MBR not being properly cleared, with the result that Windows may in turn
produce errors when trying to repartition the disk.
* Fix this by making sure we do invoke SetFilePointerEx() before calling WriteFileWithRetry().
* Also set rufus-next to 3.17
* Also fix a MinGW warning
* Remove BypassRAMCheck from Extended Windows 11 installation since the minimum
RAM requirements for Windows 11 are 4 GB and not 8 GB as pointed out in #1791.
* Display Windows edition code when we can't resolve it.
* VS2019 wants us to have PackageOptionalProjectsInIdeBuilds enabled? So be it.
* 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.
* Windows 11 appears to be a lot more proactive in locking system partitions (ESPs, MSRs)
than previous versions of Windows were, resulting in format or access errors.
* Try to work around these by disabling exclusive drive locking as needed.
* Also use build number to detect Windows Server 2019 and Windows 11
since Microsoft are COMPLETE ASSES about their version reporting.
* Also fix a compilation warning.
* In replace_in_token_data() when looking for lines starting with a specific
token but finding lines containing a larger version of the token (e.g. looking
for 'linux' but finding 'linux16') we would forget to output the non matching
line as we rejected it.
* This produced issues such as the one described at:
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2465291&page=10&p=14052629#post14052629
* Fix this by ensuring that we always output the lines that we reject.
