CHANGELOG

Changelog

All notable changes to the Damru project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Part of Damru — the open-source, Android-native stealth browser automation framework (Redroid + Playwright + CDP) for web scraping, automation testing, and anti-bot / fingerprinting research.

[0.1.0] - 2026-06-20

Added

• SEO/AEO Optimizations: Updated README and documentation files with entity context lines, internal "Related" cross-links, and keyword footers.
• Repository Metadata: Added CITATION.cff, .github/FUNDING.yml, and .github/workflows/unit-tests.yml (CI).
• Packaging Upgrades: Added project URLs, keywords, classifiers, license, and richer description to pyproject.toml (version unchanged).

Changed

• Re-formatted top sections of the README to improve alignment and layout of badges and introductory definitions.

[0.0.9] - 2026-06-17

Fixed

• WebRTC Spoof Leak: Fixed WebRTC leak protection by replacing kernel UDP blocking with remove_webrtc_block(). iptables DROP rules are removed and Chrome flag changed from default_public_interface_only to default_public_and_private_interfaces so WebRTC discovers the real proxy exit IP instead of appearing disabled.
• Timezone Resolver: Fixed timezone resolution bugs under proxies.
• WebGL Model Spoofing: Corrected WebGL model strings emulation.
• Hardware Profile Hardening: Patched Tensor-G3 cores emulation signatures.
• OS Images: Updated pre-baked damru-redroid-latest OS image checksums.

---

[0.0.8] - 2026-06-16

Fixed

• Asset Search: Resolved local chrome-apks.zip path prioritization.
• Boot warnings: Made missing touchscreen warnings non-fatal during headless device boots.

---

[0.0.7] - 2026-06-15

Added

• Global Bundle Auto-detection: Automatically detect local chrome-apks bundle or ZIP inside the Downloads/damru folder when running globally to prevent unnecessary downloads.
• UI Server Public Exposure: Added a --host parameter to the UI server to support public host exposure.
• UI Unit Tests: Added comprehensive unit tests for UI server backend helper functions.
• GPU Control: Added support for dynamic GPU profile switching.

Changed

• Hatchling Migration: Migrated Python build-system backend to Hatchling from setup.py and untracked damru.egg-info.
• Base OS Image: Changed default download URL for Redroid image to https://damru.dev/assets/damru-baked.tar.gz.

Fixed

• Cache issues with reloading configuration in UI, listing native devices in non-auto modes, and checking com.android.chromium package readiness.
• Resolved pip install packaging conflicts.

---

[0.0.6] - 2026-06-14

Added

• WebRTC Protection: Added optional WebRTC leak protection (default proxy IP spoofing, opt-in kernel block) and a new --webrtc-spoof option.
• Stealth Open URL Defaults: Made stealth-open-url default to --mode reattach (apply full Damru stealth, detach CDP for native Chrome navigation, then reconnect). --mode cdp, --mode native, and --mode playwright remain available.

Fixed

• Version matching for Chrome flags with the installed Chrome executable in random-profile CLI.
• Stop container before committing during image baking to avoid OverlayFS commit race.
• Fixed Crashpad crash issues, persistent ADB keys, and WSL path translation for assets.
• Fixed disable-breakpad flag and su_root adb execution method.

---

[0.0.5] - 2026-06-13

Added

• WebView Shell Hardening: Added force-profile --browser-package org.chromium.webview_shell to write WebView command-line/preferences, apply native memory preloads, and align props/timezone/locale.
• Profile Database Expansion: Expanded built-in profiles database from 51 to 155 devices by importing 104 additional validated profiles.
• Premium Profile Pool: Added a 100-profile premium tier selection pool for default random profiles.

Changed

• Changed default stealth opener to --mode reattach (detach CDP for native Chrome navigation, then reconnect).
• Relocated default download URLs to damru.dev and refactored install-image command.

Fixed

• WebView version match relaxation, wsl serial compatibility, and sensor HAL grace period.
• Fixed locale assertions with batched props in test suites.

---

[0.0.4] - 2026-06-12

Added

• Default Experimental Features: Enabled experimental features by default (DAMRU_EXPERIMENTAL_CDP_SENSORS, DAMRU_EXPERIMENTAL_BATTERY_DUMPSYS, DAMRU_EXPERIMENTAL_SENSOR_HAL, DAMRU_ENABLE_NATIVE_SENSOR_HAL, DAMRU_EXPERIMENTAL_HIDL_SENSOR_HAL).
• Persistent Workers: Preserved Redroid docker containers across workspace restarts.
• Subprocess reaping: Cleaned up timed-out subprocesses in ADB and Docker operations.
• Stealth APIs: Navigator properties (navigator.credentials, navigator.serviceWorker, navigator.mediaDevices, navigator.bluetooth, navigator.usb, navigator.storage, navigator.keyboard) verified working on HTTPS pages.

Changed

• Playwright crPage.js patcher now modifies Playwright in-place.
• Precomputed mobile User-Agent during _chrome_prep(): UA + Client Hints metadata are written to Chrome's native command line via --user-agent= flag.

Fixed

• Removed WebView hard requirement from find_chrome_apk (fall back to system WebView).
• Relaxed APK bundle validation (warn instead of fail for missing WebView/TTS assets).

---

[0.0.3-beta] - 2026-06-09

Added

• WebView Shell DevTools socket support.
• APK Matrix validation across multiple Chrome and WebView versions.

Fixed

• Authenticated proxy routing and local proxy bridge.

---

[0.0.2-beta] - 2026-06-05

Added

• Initial Damru local UI control panel dashboard, setup guides, and log pages.
• Native memory spoofing via per-Chrome wrap property and libfakemem.

---

[0.0.1-beta] - 2026-06-02

Added

• Initial beta automation stack including WSL kernel natfix, check-env, and setup routines.
