Windscribe/Desktop-App v2.23.6

v2.23.6-beta

on GitHub

Improved

• Release build security by enabling signature/path verification checks by default with an explicit local development opt-out.
• Russian and Ukrainian translations in the desktop app, installer, and CLI from GitHub user WkdXeqtr.
• Windows IKEv2 connector stability to mitigate possible crashes.
• Debug logs by removing false positives that could mislead automated log analysis on Windows.
• macOS builds against Xcode 26.5 and enabled ARC for client-common Objective-C++ code.

Fixed

• Control D via API Key connections failing when an IPv6 bootstrap IP from Custom DNS was retained without native IPv6.
• Ignore SSL Errors runtime bypass handling to reset wsnet failovers before retrying failed requests.
• IP pinning fallback when an Advanced Parameters remote IP does not match the selected location.
• Memory leak when handling CLI IPC commands.
• Windows installer progress handling near completion when uninstalling previous components and launching the app.
• Periodic reconnects on Windows IKEv2 connections caused by transient OS status checks.
• Logout/session deletion leaving the Windscribe IKEv2 VPN profile in macOS System Settings.
• Linux address selection so IPv6-capable VPN connections do not incorrectly prefer IPv4 via Windscribe gai.conf handling.
• deb/rpm packages installing scripts or helper files with world-writable permissions.

Updated

• Updated wsnet to 1.5.20.
