[v1.100.0]

  • Archive scanning now reaches inside Android/iOS app packages: added apk, aab, and ipa to the recognized ZIP-based archive formats so secrets embedded in APK/AAB/IPA contents (e.g. classes*.dex, res/values/strings.xml) are extracted and matched.
  • Git repository scans now extract archive blobs encountered in the object database, not just on the filesystem. Previously a .zip/.jar/.apk/.tar.gz committed to a repo was scanned as raw compressed bytes, so secrets inside it were invisible. The git enumerator fans each archive entry out as a synthetic <archive>!<entry> blob with the original commit metadata. Honors --no-extract-archives for opt-out.
  • Fixed tar-wrapped archive extraction for .tgz and .tar.* files, and made dependent credential validation deduplication preserve per-occurrence context so repeated secrets validate with the correct nearby companion value.
  • Performance: ZIP-based git blobs ≤ 64 MB extract entirely in memory (no temp-file round trip), beating the v1.99.0 baseline by ~15% on a 80 GiB monorepo despite scanning ~300K additional archive-content blobs. Larger archives auto-fall-back to a disk-streaming extractor.
  • Memory safety: hard caps on archive extraction — 64 MB compressed pre-flight, 256 MB aggregate decompressed per archive (in-memory and disk paths), 512 MB per entry, plus a PK\x03\x04 magic-byte gate. Worst-case footprint is bounded at ~num_jobs * 320 MB.
  • Release binary trimmed from 34 MB to 26 MB (~24% smaller). Switched jsonwebtoken to its rust_crypto backend (eliminates our scanner's pull on aws-lc-rs), bumped workspace hmac 0.12→0.13, sha1 0.10→0.11, sha2 0.10→0.11 to deduplicate our internal crypto code with the AWS sigv4 side, and migrated affected call sites in kingfisher-core, kingfisher-rules, and kingfisher-scanner to the digest-0.11 API (hex::encode for hex digests, explicit KeyInit import for HMAC).
