PATANYX 1.0.10 is a maintenance update with a security fix.

Download from https://patanyx.net/download/ rather than from this page. Existing copies find this update on their own and download it in the background unless you have turned that off. They ask before installing it unless you have turned on automatic installation. On Linux, a copy older than 1.0.6 updates to 1.0.6 first, then to 1.0.10.

On Windows, the download on patanyx.net is still 1.0.7, which is Authenticode-signed. Once installed, it offers 1.0.10 in Updates. The PATANYX.exe attached here is 1.0.10 without an Authenticode signature, so Windows may say its publisher is unknown. Its Sigstore bundle and SHA256SUMS are beside it, and installed copies check the update's Ed25519-signed manifest and the file's SHA-256 before they install it.

Security

  • In PATANYX 0.9.60 through 1.0.8, a web page could make PATANYX close if you right-clicked a specially made link on it and chose "Copy link without known redirects or tracking parameters". The command now copies the link, and PATANYX stays open. The same command now also unwraps Bing search result links, and says tracking parameters were removed only when they were.

Fixes

  • Windows: a link opened in a new tab with Ctrl+click or the middle mouse button could leave that tab blank while its address bar showed the link's address. The page now opens.

Nothing else changes in this release.
