on GitHub

Added

• Package signing and update authenticity hardening for supported Linux packages.

Improved

• Windows helper IPC parameter validation to reduce local IPC attack surface.
• Linux helper IPC/API hardening after EGL gid-check bypass review.
• Belarusian translations in the desktop app, installer, and CLI from GitHub user dubovy-achvelak.
• Proxy Gateway privacy by no longer logging blocked destinations for HTTP and SOCKS gateway requests.
• IP Stack preference wording to clarify it applies to WireGuard only.
• Preferences title casing consistency.
• Sign Up screen helper text styling under the Password and Email fields.
• JSON/INI import consistency for proxy sharing and MAC spoofing settings.

Fixed

• Linux IPv6 split-tunnel routes being added without the required interface name.
• Linux IPv6 DNS leak protection missing ip6tables rules for IPv6 DNS resolvers.
• Linux split-tunneling process monitor skipping proc events after the first netlink read.
• Linux split-tunneling setup failures being reported as successful.
• Persistent Ignore SSL Errors preference behavior so TLS validation bypass is runtime-only and does not survive app restart.
• AmneziaWG custom WireGuard I-values allowing newline/config injection in imported custom configs.
• Malformed OpenVPN inline tags bypassing custom config directive filtering.
• Connected DNS Custom 0.0.0.0 breaking local ctrld resolver behavior while connected.
• Split tunneling disabled message handling on macOS.
