* Use the actual Bled latest to fix a potential crash in ZSTD decompression as well as wrong disk size computation.
* Fix wrong parenthesis placement for projected vs actual disk size check.
* Update GitHub Actions to latest. Closes#3000.
* This should make it more explicit to Windows users to identify the installation media.
* Also update crazy-max/ghaction-upx to latest (Closes#2936).
* Also fix a Coverity warning and use improve StrArray handling/init.
* Rather than waste our time reimplementing the wheel, use the descriptions from gdisk.
* Also update the DB SHA-266 entries to latest.
* Also set version to rufus-next and update GitHub Actions to latest (Closes#2929).
* UPX compressing exes makes it impossible to reference the PDB when debugging
which means that, ever since we switched to using the MSVC executables for
both standalone and appstore in 4adfa4f37e the
appstore dumps we get on crashes have become basically unusable for debug :(
* We therefore revert to producing non UPX compressed executable for MSVC by
default, so that we can resume investigating appstore crashes on next release.
* At the same time, on release builds, we add new UPX compressed executables to
the GitHub Actions artifacts.
* Also update actions/checkout to v6 and close#2868.
* Note that if you use this toggle even once, then you will no longer be able to use
system settings to toggle Dark Mode, unless you *MANUALLY* delete the registry key.
* Closes#2821.
* Also update github/codeql-action to v4.
* Closes#2833.
* Obviously, this does not use the same Authenticode credentials we use for actual releases
(which we wouldn't be able to export anyway, as it resides on a hardware token), but it
should help officialize our GitHub builds, as well as remove an extra prompt.
* Also move the revoked UEFI bootloader check before the DD vs ISO check, so that people
choosing DD mode still get alerted about the revoked bootloaders.
* Also don't refresh the device list after saving to image, and fix a Coverity warning.
- Side load SetupAPI.dll, as this is the DLL that was causing the CfgMgr32.dll local load.
This reverts part of 622e60659c since we no longer have to hook into CfgMgr32.dll directly.
- Also set the redefinition of DECLSPEC_IMPORT, which we need for MinGW32 x86, in the global AM_CFLAGS
of configure.ac, so that we no longer have to worry about forgetting to do it in a source and experience
crashes on 32-bit as a result (See 965759f58a).
- Also delay-load crypt32.dll while we're at it.
- Also add provision for enabling /DEPENDENTLOADFLAG:0x800 on MinGW, by leaving a properly crafted entry
in the .rdata section that can then be used with the loadcfg.py Python script.
- Sadly, per https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/issues/2701#issuecomment-2874788564 and subsequent comment,
having DependentLoadFlags set to LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32 is still not enough to take care of side
loading issues, as, ever since the introduction of wimlib support, we are seeing CRYPTBASE.DLL being
side-loaded in MinGW, and, even with crypt32.dll being delay-loaded there is literally *nothing* we can
do about it!
- The end result of all the above is that we will have no choice but ditch MinGW for release executables
as it's just impossible to properly take care of side-loading vulnerabilities with MinGW (and Microsoft
are REALLY not helping with this whole mess either, when they don't even use LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32
for Windows' system DLLs).
- In preparation for this, we add UPX compression to the x86_64 and x86_32 MSVC executables.
- Finally, we also fix one last Coverity warning in xml.c and remove duplicates in .vcxproj for ARM64.
* Per https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/10981 and plenty of other similar
reports, GitHub Actions can no longer compile ARM32 binaries by default using the
latest Visual Studio toolchain, due to Microsoft current Windows SDK having dropped
the ARM32 toolchain (per https://github.com/zufuliu/notepad4/issues/839).
* Well, I have better things to do then try to maintain platforms in the process of
being deprecated, so I'll let the people who care about Rufus on ARM32 propose a
non-intrusive workaround that can work with current GitHub Actions.
* Also update copyright year and improve uprintf error handling
* Also bump GitHub Actions dependencies. Note that we do NOT want to update to
upload-artifact v4 because it BREAKS the creation of artifacts from matrix.
See: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact#v4---whats-new
* Closes#2382
* Closes#2383
* '.wic' are DD images used by the Yocto project.
* Why Yocto chose to use their own extension instead of using the de-facto '.img' is beyond me but hey...
* Also update GitHub Actions dependencies to latest.
* Closes#2319.
* Debian 12 ARM64 netinst ISOs have doubled in size to be larger than 512 MB,
so we need to increase MAX_ISO_TO_ESP_SIZE as a result.
* Also add extra NULL checks in process.c as some people seem to run into
NULL deref issues.
* Also set version to rufus-next and update some URLs/text files.
* 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.
* Even if this makes the resulting executable slightly larger, this should help
with troubleshooting, especially for the Windows Store releases.
* Also drop the "since 2019" from the Downloads badge, since once you reach 100M
the start date for the counter becomes a bit meaningless...
* Remove last ditch effort on systems that are clearly broken for localization
and always report an explicit error to the user.
* Also update GitHub Actions actions/checkout (Closes#2036).
* INetworkListManager appears to depend on specific services to be able to work,
which one can actually disable while still getting full Internet connectivity.
* If that is the case, HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_SERVICE_DEPENDENCY_FAIL) will be
returned, therefore we add a fallback to using InternetGetConnectedState(), which
does not have such dependencies (but has other limitations per b2492908be)
when we detect a dependency error.
* Also take this opportunity to switch to using INetworkListManager::get_IsConnectedToInternet().
* Also fix Coverity breakage due to Synopsys having upgraded their toolchain.
* Closes#1801
* 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.
