v1.0.1
Scopyx 1.0.1
A patch release with one fix: on the chromium backend, every subresource is
now decided against the policy plane. Nothing frozen in compat/1.0.json
moves.
Since 1.0.0
- The chromium backend decided each subresource against the address rules
and an allow-set the policy plane never sends, so a subresource on an
approved page reached any public host while the record said
per_request. Under it, the proxy that is the browser's only way out asked
the decider on a context of its own, so nothing the fetch had established
reached that question. Now each subresource host is one question to the
policy plane through the fetch's own memo (once per host, not once per
request), a plane that cannot be asked isdeny_policy_unreachable, and a
question asked outside a governed fetch is refused. Run red first with a
real browser: the refused host's server reached once, the policy plane
never asked about it (#44). features/subresources.feature: seven scenarios, each bound to a test and
held byscripts/features-are-bound.sh, the ninth gate.
Upgrade note, 1.0.0 to 1.0.1
Nothing to migrate. A page whose subresource host the policy refuses now
renders without that subresource and the record counts it; a page that
rendered whole under 1.0.0 and renders with a blocked count under 1.0.1 was
reaching a host the policy never allowed, and that is the fix. A rendered
page now costs the policy plane one /v1/decide per distinct subresource
host it names. The image tags are v1.0.1 and v1.0.1-chromium.
Not in this release, said plainly
- The loopback proxy under a chromium fetch is still usable by a process on
the same machine that guesses its port for the length of the fetch; the fix
shape is unchanged from the 1.0.0 notes and not built. extract=screenshotandwait_forare accepted by thebrowsetool and
not rendered by the chromium backend: a screenshot request returns the
page's HTML, andwait_foris not waited for. Both stay frozen names, and
both are listed as experimental incompat/1.0.json.- The browser's own background traffic (component updates, despite the flag
that disables them) reaches the proxy, is refused there, and is counted as
blocked; a page's blocked count can therefore be one higher than the page
itself explains. - The
externalbackend is unchanged and alwaysnavigation_only.
