BeauTyXT Versions Save

Seccomp has been removed as it causes too many problems without a way to automatically get the syscalls the program uses. Doing it manually is tedious and error prone. It may be added back once a way to automatically get the syscalls a program uses is available. This is not a priority.

Notable Changes

• removed seccomp filters by @soupslurpr
• updated dependencies (including Rust version to nightly 2024-04-18) by @soupslurpr

We've beefed up the Rust libraries' sandbox security with a seccomp filter using seccompiler and by allocating each file/project its own exclusive Rust library process. Plus, you can now open files directly via the share intent, and we have broadened the supported mime types for opening more files from other apps. Finally, Typst has been updated to version 0.11.

Notable Changes

• Run each file/project with its own Rust library process by @soupslurpr in https://github.com/soupslurpr/BeauTyXT/commit/f0f788822b5aa268358a3dfe7a24e5de9f0b6d3d

BeauTyXT now sandboxes all Rust code it runs! The Typst Rust library has been put in a separate process and library than the Plain Text and Markdown Rust library code, which are also put in a separate library and process than the main app process! This means that in the event of the library being exploited successfully (e.g. by a malicious file), the attacker can't do as much damage and they should get kicked out after restarting the app assuming they can't get past the isolatedProcess service.

BeauTyXT might be one of the most secure Plain Text, Markdown, and Typst editor!

Notable Changes

• Run Typst Rust library in isolated process by @soupslurpr in https://github.com/soupslurpr/BeauTyXT/commit/e9cee7814225c89b09c6258a79912419a1c28493
