v1.0.0 | First Official Release

Core Security Analysis

• Comprehensive Script Detection
  • Multi-source scanning: Analyzes scripts from:
    • Text blocks
    • Node groups
    • Event handlers
    • Custom properties
  • Embedded script detection:
    • Identifies obfuscated scripts in base64, hexadecimal, and other encodings
  • Real-time monitoring:
    • Background scanning for new or modified scripts

Advanced Threat Detection

• Security Rules Covering Critical Vulnerabilities:
  • System command execution
  • Network communication attempts
  • File system manipulation
  • Dynamic code execution (eval, exec)
  • Base64/hex obfuscation patterns
  • Credential harvesting attempts
  • Blender-specific threats:
    • Driver expression injection
    • Handler manipulation
    • Addon abuse

Active Protection Systems

• Auto-Protection on Startup

  • Disables "Auto Run Python Scripts" for instant security
  • File load/save hooks trigger immediate security analysis
  • Critical threat countdown: 10-second warning before Blender auto-closes

• Secure Script Execution

  • Ctrl+P override: Pre-check before execution
  • Three execution modes:
    1. Secure Execution (Recommended) – Full analysis
    2. Bypass Mode (Advanced Users) – With risk acknowledgment
    3. Standard Execution (Unsecured) – Original Blender behavior

Risk Assessment & Reporting

• Multi-level Risk Classification:

  • CRITICAL: Immediate system threat (Blender closes)
  • HIGH: Significant risk (execution blocked)
  • MEDIUM: Potential threat (warned, but allowed)
  • LOW: Minor concerns (logged only)

• Detailed Analysis Reports:

  • AST-based deep code inspection
  • Obfuscation detection scoring
  • Suspicious import tracking
  • Network activity flagging
  • Console logging with threat breakdowns

User Interface & Controls

• BlendScan Panel (Text Editor Sidebar)

  • Auto-run status display & toggle
  • One-click current script analysis
  • Global security controls
  • Real-time threat indicators

• Security Warning Dialogs

  • Countdown warning with automatic Blender shutdown
  • Threat detail display & risk indicators
  • Security recommendations & emergency shutdown

Monitoring & Detection

• Continuous Background Monitoring

  • Scans every 2 seconds for threats
  • Hash-based change detection
  • Real-time response to modified scripts
  • Persistent tracking of:
    • Event handlers
    • Drivers
    • Custom properties

• Driver & Property Analysis

  • Driver expression injection detection
  • Hidden script checks in custom properties
  • Animation data & material property analysis

Advanced Features

• Anti-Evasion Techniques

  • Multiple encoding detection:
    • Base64, hex, Unicode
  • Obfuscation pattern recognition
  • Time-based evasion detection
  • VM/debugger awareness

• Blender Integration

  • Handler registration monitoring
  • Addon legitimacy verification
  • Node script scanning (Geometry/Shader nodes)
  • Scene-wide script surveillance

Developer & Power User Tools

• Manual Analysis Tools

  • Analyze individual scripts with full reports
  • Batch script scanning
  • Optional security bypass
  • Detailed console logs

• Extensible Security Rules

  • Pattern-based system for easy rule updates
  • Organized by:
    • Category: System, Network, Obfuscation, etc.
    • Severity level
    • Blender-specific tags
