* Considering that alerting users to potential security breaches that may be
exploited by boot media should also be performed by application that create
them, we add detection for all the currently known revoked UEFI bootloaders,
be it the ones from the official UEFI DBX as well as the ones from Windows'
SkuSiPolicy.p7b, and warn the user when one such bootloader is detected on
their source media.
* Note that, to actually be revoked, the bootloaders flagged through SkuSiPolicy
require the copying of the .p7b to the boot media, which we are currently
not enacting but will perform in a subsequent commit.
* Also fix a Coverity warning in hash.c.
* As was *ENTIRELY PREDICTIBLE*, the lack of timely releases from the GRUB
project has resulted in distro maintainers (Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.) taking
matters in their own hand and applying patches on top of their 2.06 version.
However, these patches result in 2.06 bootloaders that are incompatible
with 2.06 modules that don't have the same patches applied. Especially this
now results in the infamous "452: out of range pointer" error message when
using patched modules with unpatched bootloader or unpatched modules with
patched bootloaders.
* Making this issue worse, we also have distro maintainers who won't add a
suffix to their GRUB version, AS ONE SHOULD DO WHEN ONE APPLIES TONS OF
PATCHES ON TOP OF A PROJECT'S SOURCE, and MISreport their non 2.06 GRUB as
"2.06", and, because we can't detect what patches are needed from modules
themselves (unlike what is the case for grub_debug_is_enabled), we have no
way of telling incompatible GRUB 2.06 binaries from one another.
* As a result, we have no choice but to append a sanitized version of the ISO
label to the GRUB version, as a means to differentiate between incompatible
versions, and tweak our existing bootloader download mechanism to *ATTEMPT*
to download a compatible 'core.img' from our server... where we will have
to waste a lot of time adding new binaries and symlinks to try to make all
these GRUB "2.06" based images work, and will probably miss quite few with
the end results that users who are just trying to install Linux will be left
stranded.
* Again, I have to point out how the end result of regular users wanting to
try Linux and being unable to do so is the *DIRECT* result of the GRUB project
maintainers having sat on a 2-year influx of CONTINUOUS patches, and thinking
that "Release Early, Release Often" is only a gimmick, and not something that
should apply to their project, even as they have been warned before, by yours
truly, that *NOT* releasing on a timely basis is causing actual grievances...
That's because, had the GRUB maintainers released on a timely basis (at least
once a year) Fedora and Ubuntu would be using vanilla GRUB 2.07 with the memory
patches, and we wouldn't be trying to mix that with old GRUB 2.06 binaries.
* For more on this, see #2233, noting that we will need to apply a compatibility
breaking change during the 4.1 release, to revert the patches we applied to
the default 2.06 'core.img' in pbatard/rufus-web@320b800592.
* With the removal of Windows 7 support, wrong platform archs in the check for updates
(that has now been fixed) and switch to an x86_64 default MinGW binary, we have enough
breaking changes to warrant a version bump for the major. So just do that.
* Also fix a couple Coverity warnings and update a URL.
* Note that, because of an unrelated libcdio bug where it does not properly
detect Rock Ridge symbolic links, some files may still not be instantiated.
* Also remove unneeded checks for ISO9660/UDF function cleanup and remove
a workaround for an issue that has since been fixed in libcdio.
* Update the relevant loc messages.
* Also add a -z commandline option to force the Windows version (but without letting
this option work as an override, if running on an unsupported platform).
* Also fix typos and broken URLs.
* Since 8814944c35 we may mount an ISO for the lookup of the Windows version,
which produces DBT_DEVNODES_CHANGED messages being issued when the virtual DVD is being created or removed
* This in turn leads to unwanted device refreshes.
* This patch makes sure we ignore DBT_DEVNODES_CHANGED while scanning.
* Also improve comments in iso.c.
* Arch recently added a "search --no-floppy --set=root --label <LABEL>" into their
grub.cfg, which we didn't have provision for patching, which means that, as soon
as the user changed the label or used an Arch derivative with a label that isn't
compliant with FAT (e.g. Athena Linux), search, and therefore boot would fail.
* Also alter the code so that we modify for more than one token if needed.
* Closes#2086
* This reverts most of 3528ca773d in order to download 'core.img' from our server instead of patching it.
* Also solve the issue of downloading a custom 'core.img' for Fedora 37, that introduced
a new 'grub_debug_is_enabled' symbol without altering their GRUB version string.
* This is accomplished by doing what the distro maintainers should have done on their
own, by appending a custom suffix to the GRUB version string.
* Pick the version and build number directly from the install[.wim|.esd] XML index.
This forces us to mount the ISO during scan, but it's the only way to get an accurate Build number...
* Also drop linking to version.dll (along with the whole version.dll delay-loading shenanigans).
* Existing code was trying to detect if GRUB patching was needed for GRUB bootloaders
even if they were using standard prefixes, and as a result dropped GRUB support for
any versions that wasn't 2.04 or 2.06, since we don't have a patch for those.
* This patch restores the expected behaviour to ensure that we don't disable GRUB if
a standard prefix is being used, regardless of the version being reported.
* Note that this issue only affected BIOS GRUB boot. UEFI GRUB boot was unaffected.
* Also set rufus-next to 3.21.
* How nice of "Open Source proponent" IBM/Red-Hat/Fedora to fix double space typos while making sure the
provenance of the software they are using is hidden:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/grub2/blob/rawhide/f/0024-Don-t-say-GNU-Linux-in-generated-menus.patch
* Long story short: Fedora fixed the double space in "GRUB version", but of course they didn't upstream
this change since it is part of a patch that removes every possible mention of GNU. This made our GRUB
version detection break, since it relies on finding a "GRUB version" string.
* Fix this by looking for both "GRUB version" and "GRUB version".
* This, however, does not fix Fedora Rawhide BIOS boot, since they also added custom GRUB calls such as
'grub_debug_is_enabled', which we don't have in our vanilla produced GRUB binary.
* Closes#2002.
* This is for Knoppix images that have a /boot/syslinux that links to /boot/isolinux/
with EFI Syslinux trying to use /boot/syslinux/syslnx[32|64].cfg as its config file.
* Note to Knoppix devs, you could have ensured EFI File System transposition by using
the same approach as we do here, which is to create non-symlinked /boot/syslinux
config files that point back to the isolinux ones.
* This moves the extended Windows 11 options (bypass TPM & Secure Boot) away from
"Image options" into a new explicit dialog, along with supplementary customization
such as enabling offline account (for Windows 11 22H2) and skipping all data
collection questions.
* This customization is now enacted through an unattend.xml file rather than offline
registry manipulation, so that this *should* also work with the Windows Store version.
* Also update arch detection and rework/reorganize upcoming translation changes.
* Note: The 'Remove "unsupported hardware" desktop watermark' option is *UNTESTED*.
* Now that we can delay-load DLLs for both MinGW and MSVC, we can also remove
the direct DLL hook that was added into dwmapi.dll due to side loading and
revert to using a direct API call instead.
* This reverts part of e1d864f755.
* Also attempt to silence that damn Coverity warning.
* Now that we can delay-load DLLs for both MinGW and MSVC, we can remove the
cumbersome direct DLL hooks into wininet.dll (which is vulnerable to side
loading when not delay-loaded) and revert to using direct API calls instead.
* This reverts part of e1d864f755.
* Also attempt to silence a Coverity warning.
* This reverts much of commits f6ac559f4d and 1947266837
so that we call the Windows APIs directly again, while ensuring that, by the time we load the DLLs,
sideloading mitigation has already been applied by the application.
* This is a continuation of #1877, and should help prevent re-introducing side-loading issues when we
link against new libraries, as well as allow us to drop some of the manual DLL hooking we've been
doing to prevent it, to clean up the code.
* Note that this is a bit more complex than what the stackoverflow post suggests, because we need to
create delayloaded libs for both 32-bit and 64-bit, which use a different calling convention and
therefore need to use different .def files. So there's a lot of gymkhana involved, with Makefiles
and whatnot, to get us there.
* Also simplify the use of CM_Get_DevNode_Registry_PropertyA() in dev.c since recent versions of
MinGW now have support for it.
* Also fix 2 small issues in net.c (potential overflow) and format.c (memory leak).
* 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.
* 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.
* ...that didn't get the memo about using UPPERCASE 11-chars max ISO labels.
* There's a reason why Arch labels its ISOs 'ARCH_YYYYMM', people!
* Anyway, EndeavourOS should now work in ISO mode when booted from UEFI.
* In their great wisdom, the openSUSE maintainers added a 'set linux=linux'
line to their grub.cfg, which means that their kernel option token is no
longer 'linux' but '$linux'... and we have to add a workaround for that.
* 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
* 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.
* Ubuntu switched to using GRUB for BIOS, so our update_md5sum() code was not being called.
* Move update_md5sum() to being called unconditionally to fix this.
* Closes#1616 (again...)
* Commit 77d319267f broke lookup of ISO filenames since iso9660_open()
enabled the Rock Ridge extensions by default, despite using ISO_EXTENSION_NONE
for the internal call, and we addressed a FIXME related to this.
* This resulted in Rufus not being able to lookup 'boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' to parse GRUB's
version, since without Rock Ridge, 'i386-pc/' is unable to match the ISO-9660 'I386_PC/' dir.
* Closes#1573 and addresses part of #1616.
* Also fix a MinGW compilation warning.
* These bootloaders will require LFN support. Since we don't expect that
many people to create bootable media for RISC-V derived from bootloaders
contained in a 'efi.img`, we simply ignore these for now.
* ISOs with tons of Rock Ridge deep directory entries (such as OPNsense)
can be very slow to scan due to the nature of deep directory parsing,
which requires processing the whole ISO9660 fs, for each deep directory
file, in order to find the relevant LSN entry.
* Since we don't expect much of the content we care about to reside in a
deep directory entry, we amend the code to cut short the scan of any
directory that contains such elements.
* Note that this only applies for ISO scan and it does nothing to speed
up the ISO extraction process.
