recent important news

🧪 new features

  • iPhone: new bug in iOS breaks uploading; add workaround 3ea671f
    • apple broke XHR/fetch in a recent iOS version by introducing some wtf race-conditions in response handling; under high network load, the browser simply forgets to tell js that there's a response, so we're basically flying blind
    • this workaround makes iOS uploads 50x faster than before but still not perfect (impossible given the situation); will be stuttery until apple fixes iOS
      • apple will probably fix it very soon given the severity of the bug, but at least one copyparty user is forever-stuck on iOS-18.x which will never be fixed by apple, so a workaround is justified
  • #1617 new plugin to thumbnail office documents with collabora (thx @kamaeff!) d4a1ce4
  • new hook: phonecam-sorter.py to automate organizing of pics/vids synced from phone to nas 9de0902
  • dirkeys: allow non-recursive download-as-zip with just dk 3e3401f
  • --no-mime / volflag nomime disables ?mime= for specifying custom response mimetype 370a05a
  • btrfs-specific: nocow .hist to improve sqlite performance dd9cf64

🩹 bugfixes

  • two low-severity vulns in different components, but surprisingly similar synopses:
    • GHSA-mc69-pxc8-4xf4 dirkeys (volflag dk) did not prevent descending into subdirs if an attacker could guess the name of the subdir 55969b8
    • GHSA-3fhv-rhjw-7hrg sftp did not fully enforce volflags xvol/xdev; an attacker could read a file inside the symlink destination if they could guess the name inside b80a210
    • not important enough to be listed in "recent important news", but will be detected by the (default-disabled) version-checker
  • #1628 fix http206 range-request for last-n-bytes bdf8b79
  • #1610 autogrid didn't count jxl images (thx @sylfn!) 7796c2d
  • when running without e2d, a config-reload would block uploads 0767d95
  • really old chrome versions (before ver.62) was only able to upload over https ab79192

🔧 other changes

  • #1632 connect-page: adjust rclone commands to support long passwords d7d30f2
  • packaging: fix jank in source tarballs b854b8f
  • packaging: don't list licenses of unvendored modules 704af69
  • #1631 systemd-examples: move config to /etc/copyparty.conf 185087e
  • reduce binary-garbage in logs from scrapers/scanners f00d19c
  • sfx: prefer ~/.cache/ (set PRTY_XD=/tmp to override) f870cf3
  • sfx: mention https://copyparty.eu/sfx-wtf/ in the header 8016512
  • reduce complaining in log about default/unsafe tls-certs when not relevant 80cf7bf
