deminimis/minimalfirewall v2.5

on GitHub

Features

• New Wildcard rule tab.
• Can now set more advanced parameters in wildcard rules.
• Can now delete rules from settings menu when the .exe no longer exists.
• Can now create rules for all .exe and .dll in a folder and its subfolders.
• Orphaned rule cleanup in settings removes rules when the .exe no longer exists.
• Import/Export function.

Bugs

• Fixed inconsistent theming on startup.

Backend

• The Advanced Rule form now validates formats for IP addresses, ports (including lists and ranges), and ICMP codes, providing immediate feedback on invalid entries.
• The backend service now double-checks all inputs before creating a firewall rule.
• Updated live connections tab memory.
• Reusable grid sorting across tabs.

UI

• If rule creation fails due to an invalid parameter, the application will now display a more descriptive error message instead of failing silently or showing a generic COM error.
